    Lemmy devs actually publish their goals/methods for “hot” and “active” sorting here. You may find it of value!

    The important difference, imo, is that Fediverse users have final say over the sorting of their own feeds. Reddit/Twitter/etc prioritize engagement, not actual value added to the user.
