"Hot" post sorting works differently here than on Beehaw (aussie.zone)

I'm not super familiar with how linking communities works here but I'll try my best.

If I browse the "technology" community on beehaw, it is quite active. If I sort by "hot" I see active posts from 1h ago as of this writing: https://beehaw.org/c/technology/data_type/Post/sort/Hot/page/1

So I am subscribed to that sub here on this instance, but if I view the community here and sort by "hot" the most recent post is from 1d ago. https://aussie.zone/c/[email protected]/data_type/Post/sort/Hot/page/1

But if I sort by "new", I do see those recent posts. So it seems just the sorting is different?

Maybe this isn't a big deal but it gives the impression that a community is much quieter than it actually is.

I don't have an explanation for this one, but it is concerning. The only explanation I can think of is some sort of load issues on the beehaw server, from what I can see the aussie.zone server is doing fine. CPU/memory/network/IO etc are all well below what is available.

I'll dig through the lemmy server logs this evening and see if anything jumps out.

I'm also noticing comments not appearing. This post https://aussie.zone/post/25490 has 3 comments, but I can only see 1. Is this just broken / slow to update, or is it like Reddit where people were shadowbanned?

No such thing as shadowbanning on lemmy. All mod actions are shown in the modlog link at the bottom of the page.

As I replied elsewhere, this may be due to load issues on the beehaw server, but I'm not sure.

Can confirm. Post says 3 comments. Only 1 is shown. Both on web & app.

Ok, there is a known bug with "hot" sorting right now: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3076
