Feddit UK slow or broken at updating "hot" or "active" (self.feddituk)

I have an account on feddit.uk and lemmy.world with almost identical subscriptions.

When I visit the feddit.uk homepage and look at posts from my subscriptions sorted by "hot", the two posts immediately after the two pinned Feddit UK posts at the top are 6 days old. The behaviour with "active" is similar. Posts shown are quite old, and neither hot nor active.

When I visit the lemmy.world homepage and look at the "hot" posts from my subscriptions, the first 10 are all with the last couple of hours. Active shows posts in the last 24 hours with a healthly number of comments.

Both servers are running 0.17.4

Basically, right now feddit.uk is almost unusable for me due to both hot and active being populated by stale posts. I need to search by "new" to get anything approaching useful - but when I do that there is just too much to sift through.

I've also noticed this.

I've also noticed that when I leave the front page open in subscribed view I occasionally get a sudden flood of posts appearing, they're always from remote instances and normally older posts (sometimes a few days old). It kinda looks like they're only just being received by our instance at that point, although I'm not familiar enough with Lemmy to say thats 100% whats happening. But if we're not reliably receiving posts then that could explain why the front page content is stale.
