Right now I have my feed sorted by Hot. The sixth post in my feed is 19 days old, has zero comments, and one upvote. I’m struggling to work out what algorithm is deciding this is a Hot post

Every time I have seen a post with 0 comments at the top when sorting by New Comments, the post itself was just posted.
True - which seems to be a bug to me, since that’s what studying by New is supposed to show. I do find all the bugs kinda endearing though - reminds me of the internet of old and the time when reddit wax starting :)
I don’t think it’s a bug since it even says that sort method is meant to be like an old forum system. Which is to say, all new posts, or posts with new replies, get bumped to the top.
