      Active (default): Calculates a rank based on the score and time of the latest comment, with decay over time

      Hot: Like active, but uses time when the post was published

      Scaled: Like hot, but gives a boost to less active communities

          Perfect amount of information to convey everything I would need to know concisely; thanks!

                  I switch between them all because I miss a ton if I don't.

                      I like scaled for my subscribed communities, but I prefer active when I view all because with scaled my feed gets filled with far too much niche things I'm not interested in.
