I don’t know if others are experiencing this problem too, but after the nth time, it’s getting a bit on my nerves. Because I never have more than a couple of reminders at one and the same time, I have resized the window to just that — showing a maximum of two reminders — in order to save on screen clutter. Now, the reminder that is checked by default is the one at the bottom, so a problem arises when there are more than two reminders showing up at the same time: in this case, the checked one (3rd, 4th or whatever) is not visible, and it’s very easy to get distracted into dismissing or snoozing it instead of the reminder that’s on top of the list (which, intuitively, is the one I tend to want to deal with first)
Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to have the reminder that’s selected by default show up on top of the list, or have no reminder at all selected by default? At any rate, an option in the settings to decide what one wants by default in that window would be useful.
