    The URL thing used to be

    https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy/data_type/Comment/sort/New/Page/1
    

    But now it’s

    https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy?dataType=Comment&page=1&sort=New
    

    The URL feels uglier.

      What? The first one looks so wrong, no website does it like that.

      maybe uglier but the 2nd way means the order doesn’t matter, it’s a bit more lenient for manually editing

        I mean, you can parse a URL path and query string however the heck you want. You can make the former order independent, but it’s probably better supported in libraries as the latter and definitely more common and obvious for users.
