Thoughts on Lemmy sorting options? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Hello all,

Wanted to open a discussion on Lemmy's post sorting options right now. I don't have any experience with implementing this type of thing but right now the algorithm appears... Off? For example, 'Active' gives me a lot of posts over a day old but 'Hot' may as well be 'New' i.e. more recent posts with little engagement.

I don't know if it's due to Lemmy still picking up steam or a fundamental flaw with the algorithm. Like I said, I'm really curious to hear the opinions of those more knowledgeable.

And that made sense for Lemmy when it was a lot lower volume than it is now. But Lemmy has grown a bit in the last few days and there's more content to deal with now.
