That would also not make it the latest topics, surely? More a “sample of latest from across all categories”.

I treat latest as an inbox of sorts, but favor certain higher traffic categories. If latest featured less of those the name would both be misleading, and it would be less useful to me.

I’ve unmarked the solution though, because yes it didn’t answer the initial question.
