I am retrieving alot of data from the datatabse which bring it into a paged list and datatable. I would like to reverse the order so my new transactions are displayed on the first page and not last page.Everything works good except i need to bring the latest to the first page
Controller Code

using Deadfiles.Data;
using Deadfiles.Models;
using Deadfiles.ViewModels;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc;
using Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp.Syntax;
using Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore;


namespace Deadfiles.Controllers
{
    public class DeadfilesController : Controller
    {


        private readonly ApplicationDbContext _context;

        public DeadfilesController(ApplicationDbContext context)
        {
            _context = context;
        }


        // GET: Deadfiles
        [Authorize(Roles = "Admin,User,Viewer")]
        public Task<IActionResult> Index(int pg = 1)

        {
            List<Deadfile> deadfiles = [.. _context.Deadfiles];

            const int pageSize = 10;
            if (pg < 1)
                pg = 1;

            var recsCount = deadfiles.Count;
            var pager = new Pager(recsCount, pg, pageSize);

            int recSkip = (pg - 1) * pageSize;

            var data = deadfiles.Skip(recSkip).Take(pageSize).ToArray();
            this.ViewBag.Pager = pager;
            // return Task.FromResult<IActionResult>(View(data));
            if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
            {
                return Task.FromResult<IActionResult>(View(data));
            }
            else
            {
                return Task.FromResult<IActionResult>(this.Redirect("~/identity/account/login"));
            }


        }

I have spent days trying to get this to work
