I'm not sure if it's the right place to post it, but the https://ollama.com/library?sort=newest newest sort is kinda misleading, as it doesn't take into account the last update of the model.

For exemple with the recent Mistral update (v3), I expect the Mistral to be one of the most recent models on the list if I sort by date, but it's way further down the list.

Exemple using the newest sort

The current implementation of newest sort doesn't make sense as the only date we can see on a model page is the date of the last update. I understand that newest sort probably use some internal created_at field, but this somewhat feels wrong.

Thanks for reporting this, they are actually sorted by creation time rather than updated time, so the information displayed is a bit misleading here. Leaving this open for now until we can reconcile that confusion.
