How are the 4 most popular stories on the front page chosen and how often are they refreshed?
Is it views per week? Or does it include views from previous weeks?
If it is views per week should the same story be able to stay for a second week? This could well happen as being on the front page for an extended period of time will naturally result in higher views.
I’m just curious. I think it’s nice to know how things work. It removes the mystery.
