I use PlexAmp every day as my primary music platform. I believe Plex and PlexAmp would benefit greatly from an improved Playlist sorting.

For example, Apple Music allows you to sort your playlist by the order, the artist, the album, etc. I have attached some example screenshots demonstrating this feature.

PlexAmp has something that displays the artists and albums in the playlist, a feature that I don’t find very useful.

I am aware that a similar request exists here (which I voted for), but it has been closed so I cannot reply.
