For a big instance, Hot sorting seems to work pretty well. Otherwise Top Day is probably a better choice.

I’m sure it’s growing pains. When it works it seems to be the best way of sorting things, but after a while it seems to give you new, relevant stuff interlaced with really old irrelevant stuff.

Supposed to be based on time since posted with some kind of logarithmic decay and rating.

But yeah it seems buggy.
