I heard about the whole AI moderation thing and I'm trying to move to a new fedispace.

Do you think it would make sense renaming Active to Hot and vice versa?

    I think maybe it would be better to just tweak the Hot algorithm slightly. Maybe either adjust the curve, or use max(age, 1 hour) in the calculation so that new content is not favored quite as hard, aka new content is scored as if it were an hour old.

    But you could make a dedicated discussion post asking about this, so more people can see

    I asked @dessalines@lemmy.ml about this as he is more familiar with the ranking algos:

    Maybe not renaming active, but possibly renaming hot... but IMO they're fine. Its just different from reddit, and more like the hackernews algorithm: join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/07-ranking-algo.html#hacker-news . It's more new-focused to prevent the main problem of reddits which is rewarding first posts / comments, regardless of their quality
