What determines how long a post stays on the "trending" list?
Also, what is the difference between "trending" and "Hot"?
What's the difference between "Active" and "New"?
Why do I have so many questions?

Why do trending posts stay in the trending list for as long as they do?

Definitely an issue as to how long the post stays on the front page. One thing I really like about reddit is how they nailed the algorithm for upvotes, timing, and the front page. The biggest issue is that posts that might not really deserve $10k or $20k get that high up since they are kept around on the top page so long.

I think the reason is that there really is not that much original quality content being created thus we see a huge disparity between a handful of really great posts that stay in the trending section and a huge deluge of spam and copy pasted content from other parts of the web that clutter up the "new" section.
The patforms is just starting, hope this link helps! :)
