Score
Add a trending score calculation that considers time decay and multiple engagement types.
Key improvements:
Considers multiple engagement types with different weights Implements time decay using a power law function Adds a base time offset (7200 seconds = 2 hours) to smooth out early scoring More comprehensive trending score instead of just raw counts The time decay formula is similar to HackerNews' algorithm but adjusted for shorter-term trending content. You might want to tune the weights and decay factors based on your specific needs.
