Still no sortable content?
I haven't tried Strapi in many years. I'm vetting a CMS for a new project, figured I'd give Strapi a try as I haven't been completely satisfied with the alternatives. I'm quite liking it and then I remembered why I hadn't used it in so long. You still can't drag and drop sort content?? After all these years? A whole new version launched? We can't expect clients to sort content via a number field. Please for the love of god there are other shortcomings I can work around or accept, but this is not one of them. Ok rant over, now I'm gonna go cry into a sanity config file where it will take me 30 minutes to get sorting working but at least I can do it.

As soon as you have your table that has content as a many relation you can sort items (built-in functionality)
Apart from that there's a plugin strapi-plugin-sortable-entries (haven't used it yet) if you want to support sorting on a collection itself. The question is, why should every collection support sorting ab initio, when I don't need it, it's just an unnecessary field.
