The hot sort appears to be frozen for the last 24 hrs. The top posts on all or local haven't changed in nearly a day. There appears to be a bug causing a deadlock in the database (see issue 3076 for more info). The only solution seems to be to restart the instance when that thread crashes.

There's a bug right now that causes the hot sort to stop updating. A partial fix will be coming out with the next update. The "hot score" decay is actually very aggressive on Lemmy, so normally posts should fall down the ranking very quickly.
