Showcase ranking: add more criteria (votes, thumbs up, comments) #129

Open

Description

@wiktoriavh

Why

Ranking by a single metric misses posts that stand out in other ways. Combining votes, thumbs up and comments gives a fairer top list.

Acceptance Criteria

  • The results include the top posts by votes, by thumbs up, and by comments.
  • Comments are not counted for a post whose reactions do not contain a thumbs up.
  • The ranking logic is covered by unit tests.

Open Questions

  • How many posts are listed per category?
  • Can a post appear in more than one category?
  • Is the algorithm final? It may be adjusted later.

Out of Scope

  • Changes to how votes are collected.

    Answering open questions

    • Algorithm will not be final until @wiktoriavh responds, however it should be easily adjustable and testable in a utility function.
    • Comments should not be counted into the total, because a user can manipulate the amount of votes that a post gets.

    Questions for you

    • What is a Category? There is only one channel in the discord? See attached, is that what you mean?
