Comments sort order?

Hi folks, Any idea what the default comments sort order is, and if there's a way to change it? Thanks and sorry if this was already answered somewhere...

Comments are sorted by "Hot". Jerboa does not specify a specific sort order it wants, so Lemmy gives it the default, which is Hot.

- Hmm... Not saying you're wrong but have a look at https://beehaw.org/post/477824 for example, it definitely seems like sorted By Recency
  
  Edit: actually, it's the same as the Web UI, which clearly says Hot, so I guess the answer is indeed Hot but the Hot algorithm prioritizes recency?
