Recently added sorting is flawed for certain cases.

The current way recently added works is it only shows up in there when you create a new entry.
So for blank entries that have already been made but the chapter gets added later it won't show up in the recently added section, so effectively zero visibility for the manga unless it starts trending. There is no way you'd know about an entry made in 2022 if it gets its first chapter TLed today.
But if the manga is from 2022 but the entry along with the chapter gets made today then it'll show up.
Take this manga TLed yesterday for example it doesn't show up in recently added for weeks.

Please change the sorting method for Recently Added to first chapter scanlated regardless of when the entry has been made. I think it'll be a huge boost to discoverability.

well, in your example, chapter 1 was already translated into Spanish 14 days ago
you're asking for every first chapter of every new language?

Not for every language but The vast majority of uploads and users are in English so at least for English it should be a feature to let you know when the first English chapter gets TLed. Which is usually the recently added section unless it's a case like this.

I for one understand EN more than ES, so I prefer EN. My ES comprehension's MTL level lol.
