Coming from a third party reddit app, my front page did a good job populating itself with posts from less busy subreddits even though there were proportionally WAAAY more dead posts from /r/pics than from a smaller subreddit. Kbin seems to be showing waay more posts from RedditMigration and priacy right now because of how busy they are. Is this just because there isn’t enough content on kbin yet, or is kbin lacking a way of balancing what is showing on /subs?

I don't have expertise here. I do like your ideas, particularly upvotes relative to views. The strength of the upvotes:views ratio indicator should be a function of views, where upvotes:views increasingly matters as the view count grows. 0 upvotes of 1 view doesn't mean much at all. (Note though that currently our view count seems to exclude other instances, as I have a recent post with more upvotes than views.)

Implicit in all of these is a time function whereby recentness is a main factor.
