[1.1.55] Server filters are reset on restart

WHAT?
recently the headless thingy got added as the 4th filter;
However,
when you exit-and-restart the game the filters are reset to ANY state (at least for me)

Same goes for the sort-by-column thing that gets reset to by-name...
other half-on-topic stuff
imo, passw and mods filters at least are pretty much important to be persistent.
Not only it could be possible to request a smaller json, (I do not care about the other half (or 3/4?) of the tree right now, right?) if you set the filters right in the first place (aka faster "load" time),
but you would save the player a few clicks (and possibly list render time) each time they start a game anew!
Thus,
please, do another "beta" release, as 1.1.55 is not ready to be the stable version imo. This *little* detail is quite oblivious each time you (re)start a game, so I am pretty surprised it was not reported before.

Thanks for the report however that change was done on purpose.

Any reason why this was done on purpose?
I would call this a regression since the settings are not being saved.
I don't play on servers with mods.
I don't play on servers with passwords.
Having to filter them out each time is very annoying.
Can this be made a setting?

(Sounds like a suggestion thread should be made.)

Griefing the playerbase was done on purpose? Why? Those settings
need to be saved.
This means that every time someone loads it up, they have to set the filters all over again, adding up to years of additional effort forced upon the playerbase. I thought Factorio was about efficiency.

This was done on purpose? wut? why?
For me, i never play on server with passwords, i never play with on servers with 0 people and i never play on servers with mods.
This is definitely a regression.
Now every time i load the multiplayer screen, i have to click on those 3 radio buttons, super annoying.
Another thing that doesn't get preserved anymore is the sorting of the games, I always sort by player count descending.

I agree with all these points, it is annoying to have to select all these every time I restart, when I chose the exact same options each time

Sounds like it could be in the settings, "save public game browser filters," and set it to default off. That way, you guys don't have to complain about clicking 3 times and new players don't have to complain about why they can't see their friend's game.
