You're not alone ;)

I think it's now sorted the same way the crafting window/tabs on the right are sorted, which makes sense, but still, i liked having ores and wood and stuff on top. I can live with this new sorting as well tho :)

The sorting indeed done as the recipe display uses. It was broken before and is now sorting correctly.

If you think it should be changed you're welcome to make a suggestion about it (or a simple mod could do it as well - but that would change the recipe display).
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

There is no way to make it configurable???

I mean I'm sure I will get used to it, but I dont want to get used to it :?

From what I understand sorting fix is needed because of multiplayer and desyncs. New version is more deterministic and change of order is a side effect.
