I’ve suggested implementing (optional) thread-bumping in Discussion on twooccasions. Both times, the suggestion received very little agreement (as measured by upvotes), and I’ve never understood why. It seems like an obvious improvement to me.
I (and possibly others) look through for discussion posts I haven’t read based on date. Sorting by upvotes allows one to see which recent threads are active and saving posts allows you to follow discussions you’ve been reading. Recent comments also follows where the latest additions of any kind have been made.
In that environment, I think there’s a limited number of people who are interested in “bumping” the same way one would see on a forum.
