Irrelevant, old, posts in hot

Is it just me?

My hot it full of months, or even years old posts that have almost no upvotes or comments. Why are they there?

And unlike actually "hot" posts they don't seem to want to go away. Is this a bug? I'm not seen any discussion on it, not even on github.

Upgraded the UI to 0.18.0-rc1 and the backend to a few commits ahead of 0.18.0-rc1. I haven’t seen this issue so far today.

And I just got a 14 day-old post. So it seems like the issue is still there.

I think that as long as the instances you scrape from have not updated, the bug will remain.

Ah that’s good to know. I suppose this is a reasonable limit to what I gain by living on the bleeding edge.
