I only just noticed this option for sorting my feed. I do have a reasonably curated selection of large and small and using “scaled” gives the results I would expect across them all.

Give it a go.

    This is just conjecture from experience, but I would guess that hot is a weighted sort that shows posts in order of upvotes per unit time. While top is net total of upvotes in a determined time period.
