Yeah I like them very much! Active has a more of "check once per day" feel, while hot is more for more frequent browsing.
Why would you say the algorithms are unbalanced?
To be fair I think it's only balanced when you scroll down for a few minutes.
In active, I noticed I start seeing ~2 day old posts I recognize from earlier mixed in with some posts I would've expected to see in hot a few hours ago, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but seems sort of out of place and maybe unintended.
And in hot it's a bit worse in my opinion when pretty soon I start feeling like sorting by new with some few hours old posts with relatively high traffic here and there.
Obviously this is all my personal opinion and might even out in a few days with a more active user base.
Completely agree.
Maybe the parameters were tailored for a smaller userbase?
