When tapping the “category” menu heading on mobile at the top of the screen, the actual menu recently pops up way far away at the bottom of the screen, which is very annoying and inconvenient UX. Is there a way to make the menu appear at the location the heading like a normal dropdown menu?

> It’s quite jarring to click what used to be a pull down to select latest, new, etc at the top of the page and then have to go to the bottom of the screen to choose.
