Here is an archive so people can see what you are talking about.

I also think this probably not the best behavior. The cause seems to be that "Hot" sort algorithm seems to weigh priority as (upvotes-1 * newness) and if no one else has upvoted your post, the "newness" benefit doesn't kick in.

This is not be a problem in a large subreddit with people browsing the new queue, but for smaller subreddits getting off the ground it is. So I hope it is changed.

You are exactly right. Because the other post I made, that has one upvote, is at the top. So one vote made the difference from being in 14th place to 1st place. But it's only luck that someone noticed that post all the way at the bottom.
