we've got the same posts sitting at the top of "active" for days and then tons of posts showing up in "hot" with near zero comments. new "hot" is the same as old "active"

switch it over to "hot" or you aren't a real poster

    Yeah I always hated the reddit paradigm where posts get buried just because they're a few hours old. Often I'll see an interesting post that I want to comment on but I dont bother because the post is over 12 hours old so nobody will see it.

    There's a "new comments" mode now which works like a forum where posts get bumped to the top when someone comments on it. Makes more sense to me than any of these vaguely defined algorithms.
