what's up with years old posts suddenly popping up ? (lemmy.world)

Weird thing has started to happen the last day or two. My Subscribed flow is suddenly filled with old posts. For example this: https://lemmy.ml/post/46651

There are no replies that are even close to as old as the post itself is which indicates that something fishy is going on. Someone got the post in their flow now and therefore started to reply to it.

This is just one example of many in my flow right now...

So is there a bug or something going on?

I’m glad I ran across this post. I just signed up and was wondering why I was seeing 2y old posts close to the top of my feed. I figured it might be because there’s just zero traffic, so I’m relieved.

It did improve when I switched my client from All to Local.
