I know this isn't likely specific to lemmy.ca, but is sorting by Hot super bugged? The first page of results are fine, but then the 2nd page is only posts from a random community from years ago
Using the web interface it seems to be working totally fine, I went 5 pages deep with no issues. If you're using an app, the app may me creating issues.
So I think the issue is with certain communities. I just unsubbed from [email protected] and my Hot feed is now fine. I think some community posts must still be getting a weird score calculation
