I see you’re on Lemmy.ml. It’s PROBABLY because of that. That instance is really big so it causes posts to not load and what not . Go to a smaller one. Like in the ~1k range or something and I’m SURE all of these problems will go away. It was the same for me when I first joined Lemmy and picked Lemmy.ml. The following day I switched to Lemmy.ca back when it had ~40 users.
Sorry for digging up an old post lol. For active, is that the score of the latest comment or the score of the post?
