Issues: As the default sort, “Active” is a self-boosting cycle as well. Active posts show up for everyone, so first-time users participate there, and it stays on active for 4-5 days. This is going to drive users away when they see the same front page after the 2nd or 3rd day. Perhaps “Hot” might be a better default sort?
