It's not based on what posts you look at. It's the same for everyone. See the documentation here: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/07-ranking-algo.html
Hot is like Top but uses the time since posting to scale the ranking to keep newer content towards the top.
It really doesn’t seem to work as intended, I see months old posts under hot for no apparent reason.
That was a known bug in 0.18.2. It looks like your account is on lemmy.world which has very recently updated to 0.18.3, are you still seeing the issue?
I will give it a look, I haven’t been using hot due to that issue
