## How does content make it into top or trending?
Top content is based on calculations around the total LBC value of content, which is accumulated through the claim bid amount plus any community [tipping and supports](https://lbry.com/faq/tipping). Trending is similar and [is based on tip/support changes over a period of time](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lbryio/lbry-hub/master/docs/trending%20algorithm.pdf). The Top category is normally instant - the highest-ranked LBC content will appear at the top when published in the time periods specified. Trending takes some time to update and larger tips/supports may see a delay to avoid abuse.

## How is this different from YouTube?
YouTube uses obscured, secret algorithms that are designed to be biased in favor of the mainstream media and other creators they prefer, rather than being neutral to all content ([See Veritasium's take on this](https://lbry.tv/@veritasium:f/my-video-went-viral-here-s-why:e)).
LBRY creates open-source code that allows all of the world to see precisely how our features work. We can then write articles like this one that tries to spell it out in plain language. The source code for the Trending/Top/New functionality is viewable [here](https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-hub/blob/master/hub/elastic_sync/service.py#L190).
