There's a button to "sort" folders in the settings which sorts the currently existing folders alphabetically. Then when you create a new folder it gets put at the bottom. Can we just have them sort alphabetically automatically?

Also when you click sort, it only sorts the top-level folders. The subfolders don't get sorted at all.

This is the kind of rough-around-the-edges stuff that Proton really needs to sort out before adding more and more services.

Why shouldn't subfolders be alphabetical? It's logical.

Because people could want them in a specific manual order other than using the alphabet. Well, you could put a number as prefix to order them, I know, just pointing the fact.

But that same logic should apply to top level folders. It doesn't make sense to on have some folders alphabetized but not others.

There should be an option for the cascading sorting but it shouldn't be default. I want to change the things I am interacting with in that moment and not something way down. Maybe there was a reason not to sort it alphabetical.
