Sorting is implemented in SQL not Rust, you can see an example here: #3907

Yes, the current issue is that on Lemmy there is a recency bias in the sorting algorithm. As communities grow over time, newer posts tend to receive more votes simply because there are more active users than in the past. This skews the "top of all time" sorting, making it more likely for recent posts to appear at the top, regardless of their relative merit compared to older posts.
Storing historical monthly active users just for this seems way overkill. If you want to work on this I'll leave it open, but otherwise its not something we have time for.
