Ah, that's why I see heavily downvoted posts near the top.
I wonder if it would make sense to randomly sort for the first couple hours, and then sort by that metric afterward. That would further limit the first mover advantage in more popular communities.
Regardless, lemmy's sort seems to be fine with the scale it's currently at.
