But to upvote you have to see the post. So who would upvote the post if it’s old and buried under 3 years worth of posts if the system didn’t put it the active feed for some reason? Furthermore, If it would be a one off I would understand, but now there are 12 out of 20 posts that are older than 1 year on the front page when you sort it by “Active”. The oldest one (4 years) have one comment from the same time.
It’s some kind of bug. It has to be.
Probably because it received upvotes recently?
I would imagine dampening how much of a boost old posts get would fix this issue.
