Popularity Scoring

Sort by popularity is back! Now the default sort order on the Explore / Home page is “popular”. This is a metric that uses the Hacker Hot algorithm using the creation date, last updated date, star count and forks count as input. The idea behind this change is to bring the highest quality newer vizzes to the top of the home page in such a way that it changes daily and tracks “trending” work.

Before (default sort by most recent):

After (default sort by popular):

This seems to bring recent stuff with stars or forks to the top. We’ll continue to iterate the popularity ranking algorithm to try to find a balance between most recent and most starred.
