Is it just me?

My hot it full of months, or even years old posts that have almost no upvotes or comments. Why are they there?

And unlike actually "hot" posts they don't seem to want to go away. Is this a bug? I'm not seen any discussion on it, not even on github.

At least was a bug. If a post for whatever reason is requested again from another instance, then it would be inserted into the database with a very high hot score, as if it was a new post. But I thought that was fixed.

Indeed, that github issue is closed.

I'm not sure this is that, though.

That doesn’t mean it’s been deployed yet.
