Need a way to easily see which plugins are new

Expected behavior

A view for seeing the “latest” added plugins.

Current behavior

I don’t see a way to find new plugins when they’re added. There is a navigational note at the bottom of the page:

Showing 1 to 12 of n results

…which you can use to know when new plugins have been uploaded, but, there’s no way to easily find them among the rest.

Possible solution

A latest uploads view! This could even be as simple as adding to the navigational note:

Showing 1 to 12 of n results | See latest plugins

…or adding it to the title line at the opposite side, something like…

Plugins                                                                                     Latest | Popular | Featured

Context

Ease of use.

100% agree this is something we should add. Once we start tracking installs we can also start a popular section like in your example :slightly_smiling_face:

It’s so easy to game that sort of thing, and as audience grows, the more people will want to game it.

Latest means latest added…ie, new plugins…not latest updated. To game it – if you could call it that – you’d have to keep writing new plugins. I don’t think gaming is a concern with latest plugins.
