Absolutely so. Posts with more engagement will automatically climb up and that's on the "Top" section (https://news.nukleosome.com/top). We'll make this section the default as the community grows.
The reason we're leaving it at 'Latest' for now is because that's where the 'Welcome' post is pinned, which is important for people to get a sense of what it's all about and what does it stand for (i.e. mission).
