Suggestion: Add "Hot" posts front page order
Could we get new post ordering: something like reddit Hot system?
Now, the ordering by activity is great, but the big issue with it is, that when you go to less-active ~, you only see two or three topics. Even on front page, there are just 15 or 20 topics. I know, it's because I limit threads to only several days, but there is problem when I set limit up to week, or two: there are very old threads on the front page right at the top.
So could we get something like reddit has? Display posts according to upvotes/time (comments?), but do not limit them to few days and show them at least +- chronologically - so no two weeks old posts at the top of front page.
Maybe this could be achieved just by tweaking the current activity order by boosting young threads more and vice versa.
Could you get that result by using setting your time limit when using either most votes or most comments?
Though, I do think it might be nice to allow different default time limits in different groups.
Edit: it does respect different time limit defaults.
I think there would be great value in seeing posts with the greatest number of recent comments no matter how old the original post is. An old thread with recent activity is a "hot" thread.
Isn't that sort by activity with all time filter on?
It might be; I haven't explored the use of those filters.
