As the titles says I want to know if it's possible to sort upvoted post to latest upvote. I know favorites does this on a different page. I wonder if upvotes does similar things like this

This just isn't currently a thing you can do.

It'd be extremely volatile in terms of search result ordering. Probably just deemed not worth it. And/Or upvotes don't store a timestamp

First off, I assume no timestamp is being stored for upvoted posts. Furthermore, if someone with an extremely large number of upvoted posts (such as myself) tried to use it, it would probably take too long for the site to sort all the posts in the correct order and cause problems. At least, that's why we have an 80k limit on favorites as of 2020. I'm not a programmer, so I don't know the details of how this all works.

While they do store a timestamp (old things may not have a timestamp, but as far as I'm aware, everything created now will have a timestamp), we have well over 400,000,000 voted posts. It's just not really feasible to sort that monstrosity. There is no cap on the number of upvotes a user can have as well. Sorting 80,000 is very different from sorting hundreds of thousands or more.

A metatag to search them does exist, though not in any particular order

Hmm, the database export for that is... painful to have to customize per user, I bet. And of course the full database is a privacy nightmare so won't get backed up. Tl;Dr If you really, really value your favorites and upvotes, save them. Hmm, I wonder if the JSON results have the timestamps. Could make sense to cache that on a local client like Wolf's Stash.

Yes, it does .
