    The “active” setting really fucks up the order.

    Like you are reading a couple of posts, and when you go to the next page, you see the same posts because so many comments are made which put those posts at the top again.

    Really want something like “hot for the last 24h” and then ordered by amount of comments in the last 24h.

      Never seen anyone else mention this, but when I click a post on page 2 then go back, it shows the page 1 posts again. But because the URL is set up for page 2, clicking next goes to page 3. If I don’t concentrate I end up reading one post from each page and missing 90% of my feed.

      The issue is that the sorting options are taken literally down to the algorithmic level. They really need to be tweaked to fit better with user expectations
