I’ve noticed that most communities mainly show day-old posts with default sorting. Sorting by New or Hot helps with seeing newer posts. Kinda obvious, but I sure didn’t realize until trying it out 😅

    Could be that with less users on lemmy.one, there’s less people using the search for specific posts. The edge case triggers when a user does that. The hot_rank column functions normally if nobody searches for posts.

      Yeah honestly I picked it randomly and had been regretting not going with a bigger instance, but now I’m glad I went with it because I can still read both Beehaw and Lemmy.world so I’m not really caught up in that whole drama. Seems that there are some advantages to being on a smaller instance
