Is it just me, or is sort by active worse on sh.itjust.works than on other instances? On sh.itjust.works, it gives posts (both local and federated) that are weeks old. If I do the same on lemmy.world, it gives much more relevant posts that are a few hours to around a day old. Maybe there are some server settings that could be tweaked?
I have the same on my own instance too, my guess it’s a bug in lemmy.
It is. Version 0.18 fixes it. Someday.
