Why does the frontpage of kbin.social work so much better than any other server? (kbin.social)

When I visit kbin.social, I see new posts regularly. On other servers posts stay on the frontpage for multiple days. This is also true if I switch their sorting to "hot". So that is probably not the difference.

What is kbin.social doing differently?

Much like reddit I believe that happens on lemmy automatically. Unlike kbin.

Yep, I posted a link on Lemmy earlier today and it started at 1 with an upvote from myself immediately after submitting.

I think Kbin should auto-upvote too (as did almost everyone in the poll last I saw it), if not else then for feature parity.
