Description

Simply put, set RR to table mode (two pane), then press on Random Subreddit.

Once at XYZ sub, sort comments by say, "Top" comment. Or any sorting, for that matter.

Expected behavior: To sort comments by top comments, or by any sorting picked.

What happens: Sub gets refreshed and switches to another, random sub, instead. For reference, I checked, and this behaviour seems to happen with the NSFW random sub feature, too.

This behaviour does not happen when not using the Random Subreddit feature. Normal, average usage/surfing seems unaffected by this bug.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the Android app by enabling two-pane/table mode, using Random Subreddit, and selecting a comment sort; also check the NSFW random-subreddit path. No files or tests are named, so begin by locating the Random Subreddit and comment-sorting entry points. Done means sorting keeps the current subreddit instead of refreshing to another random subreddit.
