As noticed by @ozkriff, the homepage wasn't actually being sorted in date order. Upon some digging, I found that they were actually being sorted in reverse alphabetical order - it just so happened that we've not broken that pattern of post names since the site launched 😆
In my defense, the Zola theme I used as reference for implementing this site also makes this mistake...
The fix is to properly sort the
posts
section by date, and then remove the reversing logic from the template. This also has the nice side effect of giving us access to the next/previous post as template variables, so I might integrate that into the template at a later date 😄
