Edit: I was wrong the ranking that works like forums is New Comments and yes it seems to take into account the OP comments.

I feel like this is what happened when you’d see posts with hundreds / thousands of upvotes but had only 20-ish comments.

Nah it’s the same here in Lemmy. It’s because the algorithm only accounts for votes and not for user engagement.
