Coming back to this, I noticed today that in desktop view the categories are listed in order of selection in the side bar settings. On mobile though they are in alphabetical order. Is this intended or a bug?
That’d be a bug, but I’m not seeing it. If you find a way to reproduce it, let us know!

yep, it’s fine when you’re logged in. just doesn’t work when you’re not (which we often refer to as “anonymous”).

From the topic, I was not sure which order was correct and which was not.
I understood the opposite, apparently.

Can’t we have this anonymous ux as a setting? Sometimes 
are fun. 
I would agree. The anonymous category order is following the standard category order as I would prefer that to alphabetical.

I have fix for now to just sort it alphabetically like how we do for a logged in user.
