More specifically, how does the ‘hot’ sort option work? It seems to be based on what posts I look at (I think) unlike top and new which are the same for everyone. Is this true? And if so, who controls how the algorithm works? My home instance? Or the base lemmy code?

    It really doesn’t seem to work as intended, I see months old posts under hot for no apparent reason.

      That was a known bug in 0.18.2. It looks like your account is on lemmy.world which has very recently updated to 0.18.3, are you still seeing the issue?
