@diggy - I think I may have been wrong on that data model.
I believe it is impossible to get the follower feed the way we expect it to work until nested filters is implemented.
I believe this will return an array of followers with their posts, when what we want is an array of posts by their followers.
So this will not sort the posts, as they will be separated by each follower – hence the difference.
This was my misunderstanding, but thank you for listening to my post!
Perhaps @amaster507 can confirm this.
Thanks,
J
