What's the difference between Hot and Top?

[–] UhBell@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago

Hot prefers newer posts that are gaining votes and comments. Top prefers the most votes within a specific timeframe.

The Lemmy documentation explains the different sort options pretty well: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/03-votes-and-ranking.html

The difference between "Hot" and "Active" is probably the most confusing to most users.
