I’ve seen people say “Sorting by Hot is the problem, sort by Active instead,” and I’ve also seen just as many say the exact opposite. I’m still undecided.

  • Going by what the FAQ said the difference was, Active seems the better choice for discussion/engagement, while Hot is good for just scrolling through posts and not engaging with the community.

    I will likely prefer Active for that very reason, but right now I’m mostly in New just trying to see what communities are out there and have other users.
