<p dir="auto">I reached out to Wiki editor, they replied with <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:ENT8R&curid=192853&diff=2608297&oldid=2608258" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:ENT8R&curid=192853&diff=2608297&oldid=2608258</a></p>

<p dir="auto">Thanks for reaching out to me. I looked at the source code again and it looks like the side-effects of using the from parameter without explicitly specifying the sort and/or order are not documented in the Wiki right now. The issue is that in order to achieve backwards compatibility with previous states of the API (where sort and order did not exist yet), when using from to limit the results to a specific date range, this range is applied to the creation date of notes by default (necessary to keep old behavior) while the sorting happens based on the last update of the notes by default. This might lead to the confusion in the linked issue because it is not very clear which date (either creation date or last update) is used to apply the date range to when omitting the sort parameter.</p>
