Personally I use Hot rather than New because of the sheer volume of posts that exist. It’s kind of a disincentive to keep scrolling if the content gets generally less interesting and less commented on as you scroll.
I actually kinda like being the first to comment on a post… it raises post and view count and people that have Hot or Active selected in their feed, will most probably get that post in there if enough people comment.
Yeah, on Reddit, comments got kinda lost in the noise… that’s why I always chose New, even on Reddit. What’s the point of commenting if no one actually reads your comment 🤷.

That’s a good point. I guess it’s a leftover from Reddit. I do comment more often now.
Still, I’m more okay with missing out on bottom-of-feed Hot posts than bottom-of-feed New posts.
