Is sort by "Active" using the wrong methodology?

If you go here: https://piefed.social/home/active/all

It just looks like its showing the most recently commented post. That probably isn't how "Active" is suppose to work. On Lemmy, it works like this: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/03-votes-and-ranking.html

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

Active on Piefed = New comments on Lemmy

It's confusing, sorry for that

Ok, in that case, we should call it "new comments."

Yes I think you're right. Thanks for pointing this out.

Just a heads up, calling a method "methodology" is also the wrong method.

I would love to be able to sort by number of comments in a period instead of number of upvotes.
