Is there any easy way to reverse the chronological order of the News Feed to more readily match Facebook and show newest entries first, vs having to scroll through the full history?

That is why never install anything blindly :)

I found that there was a component called "Newsfeed Post Order" that I must have installed by accident that was putting my feed in older-first order. I've since disabled it and all is good now.

Um, the most recent news feed posts already do show up first, but if you want to modify the order they're shown in, it's in the OssnWall class (components/OssnWall/classes/OssnWall.php) in the GetPosts() function. It looks like this by default:
$default = array(
'subtype' => 'wall',
'order_by' => 'o.guid DESC'
);
so for example, if you wanted to display in chronological order, you could change that DESC to ASC.
Due to the many requests in the past for additonal features and components we have decided to develope a premium version. Features like Hashtags, Videos, Polls, Events, Stories, Link Preview, etc included in it.
