From my personal experience:

New - Newest first

Hot - New but in a different order

Active - Popular posts from this week (with a few posts from several months back just because)

There are some details in the docs. I also saw a post somewhere about plans for changes but I saved in on a now defunct lemmy server and now I can't find it.
