I believe hot is currently bugged, I use recent comments as sorting and I find that nice.

I just tried that. 2 of the top 6 posts that popped up had zero comments. Within a few seconds, brand new posts (with no engagement) starting filling in from the stop.

It seems like the content algorithm is fundamentally broken right now.

    They switched from using websockets with a constant feed of new posts, to just normal http.
