TIL that you can sort GitHub issues by most "upvoted"

posted 23 days ago

You can sort GitHub issues by most “upvoted” using this syntax:

is:issue is:open sort:reactions-+1-desc

Thanks to gromenauer for making me aware of it in this GitHub comment.

Full documentation for sorting GitHub issues and pull requests can be found here.

EDIT (2024-08-27T05:20Z): There are also UI options that enable sorting by most “upvoted”:

Sort:

[ - ]

3 points

Is this in the issue search bar?

Yeah. I believe it should also work in the pull request search bar, but I haven’t checked.

EDIT (2024-08-27T05:21Z): I just checked, and yeah the Pull requests viewer has the same search option.
