Filtering by rising and posting meta jokes was the standard if you wanted to get seen and interacted with.

Here you can just make a decently thought out comment and most of the time get at least one reply by the end of the day.

I think the hot algorithm here is weighted better. It pulls up brand new comments on a similar weight to older comments with hundreds of points, which makes people more likely to see and interact with new comments. The Activity and New Comments post sorts also prioritize ongoing discussions, which I think is pretty cool.
