This is partly true. While upvoting has some effect, boosting (at least on Kbin) has a much greater effect on sorting. For example, no comments were boosted on this thread, with Omgarm’s 12 upvote comment below 1984’s 42 upvote comment when using hot sorting. I boosted Omgarm’s comment and it is now at the top of the page despite have less than half the upvotes.
That’s a weird system. I haven’t used Kbin, except for where it intersects Lemmy, so I wasn’t aware of that being a thing even. On Lemmy we don’t see that sort of thing.
