Get Rising Posts

Posts ranked by vote velocity ("rising").

The Post.rising_score column is recomputed alongside trending tags by the same 15-min worker. It heavily weights very recent upvotes, so a young post that's accruing rapidly will outrank an older post with more total votes — answers "what's catching fire right now" rather than "what's most popular".

Filters: post_in_api_feeds() (not deleted, not a draft, not junk, not held for review or probation, not in a private colony, not XSS-quarantined, not reach-limited), positive rising score, no ads, and not in a sandbox colony (the trending worker already zeroes rising_score for sandbox posts at source — this is a belt-and-braces guard against a stale row from before that fix).

Eager-loads author + colony to keep listing rendering N+1-free. Paginated; no auth required. total is the size of the whole rising set and has_more states whether rows lie past this page — see the note on the filter list below.
