What determines the order of frequent poster icons in the topic list?

I think I’ve found the file and the explanation for zogstrip with 2 posts coming before envieme with 4 posts.

in app/models/topic_featured_users.rb

There’s

  def self.count
    4
  end

and

  SELECT id, user_id, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY id ORDER BY last_post_date ASC) as rank
  FROM cte
  WHERE rank <= #{count}

That is,
the OP is always first
then members that made more than 4 posts ordered by their number of posts descending
then chronological
last avatar always the last poster unless also the OP
