What feature would you like implemented?

Basically swap Local and Social in the 2nd and 3rd places, compared to now.

Why should we add this feature?

Since the recent change of swapping Home and Social's functionality, now your follows' feed (which used to be the first timeline) is displayed third. I think it makes more sense to have it at second place instead of practically bumping it down two places.

Also, now you can swap back functionality between Home and Social from Settings (decide in which of those will local posts appear). I think it makes more sense to swap between the first and second timelines, instead of the first and third.

Lastly, Home and Social are the two timelines where Home/Unlisted posts appear. It makes more sense for them to be the first two timelines, than to expect from users to wrap their heads around the idea that unlisted posts are listed in the first timeline, then not listed in the second one, but listed in the third one.

Not a super big deal probably but I think it would make more sense this way, from many aspects.

Alright, I gave it some more thought, and perhaps we will want to use Social for other ideas in the future so it might be better to just leave things as they are for the time being, until we are more certain, to avoid multiple changes. Closing for now, might revisit later.
