Sort by 'New' no longer working?

Update:

So I've tried this on multiple browsers (FF, Chrome, IE), and even on a mac (Eww!), but when I click the 'Newest' tab... nothing changes. It's still sorted by Y!A's obscure 'relevance' system, which means that if I wanna answer questions, I'd potentially have to sort thru millions of questions to find one that's still 'active'. Even typing in the actual URL directly, for example /search/search_... still sorts it by RELEVANCE and not NEWNESS.

Any ideas/suggestions/people

Update 2:

Sorry, the link is /search/search_result?p=l...

    It's broke! They haven't bothered to fix it yet. Hopefully they will. It isn't you or your operating system. It's all Yahoo! Don't you love when they do updates and fix something that was never broken to begin with?

    This has been a problem for several days and needs to be reported in https://yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/211240-us-answe... where Yahoo! staff will see it as they peruse and scrutinise the new Suggestion Board.
