This is probably an ELI5 question, but can someone explain to me the diffence between the available sort orders for Posts and comments - Active/Hot/New ?

Okay I believe I know what “New” is lol, but how about “Active” and “Hot” ? More comments? More upvotes?

I saw such sorting options in Reddit also - but never cared much (neither I care about Reddit anymore so F U spez)

    This is what I found on join-Lemmy.org

    Active uses the post votes, and latest comment time (limited to two days). Hot uses the post votes, and the post published time.
