I’ve seen a few mentions of people feeling like they’re constantly seeing the same content when sorting by active, I’ve since moved to hot, and I’m having a much better time.

Well, all the sort options are rational. You just have to use the one you prefer. How would you sort posts differently ?
I miss rising and best on reddit gave me better experience. And I have not the slightest idea what a good sorting algorithm might be, I just can tell if it works for me or not. What helped me here, is blocking the communities I was not interested in, now the feeds are much more to my liking.
I need something that works well for both small and large communities. Active and top basically only shows big communities. I want some form of “top” that’s actually relative to the norm for that community (both in terms of votes and how many posts the community gets). I’d rather not see completely new posts (I often like someone else to take the “first pass”), but don’t want to completely miss content in small communities.
In fact, right now, it seems like the only way to see stuff in smaller communities is to specifically browse that community? That’s the only way I’ve ever seen posts from my tiny local city community. It has posts, but they’ve never once showed up on my subscribed front page.
