This small userscript allows you to set the default sorting option for the "User reviews" page when opening it from a link on the title page (and from its "reference" version)

By default, without modifying the setting, the default sorting is now set to "Helpfulness". It was the default until at least the first half of 2021.

To access the small menu - only available on the title page, or the reference title page - scroll to one of the "User reviews" links, press and maintain CTRL+ALT and click the link with the mouse's left button. (Due to the way the page is designed, your first and maybe your second click could be ignored)
The menu should opens a little below the link. You can then select the default option (including choosing IMDb's default).
The choice is saved immediately and the links are modified (you can move your mouse over them to see the modification).

This userscript has been tested on Firefox and chrome with Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey.
