Here's a link to information about Algolia's ranking formula - https://www.algolia.com/doc/guides/relevance/ranking https://www.algolia.com/doc/guides/relevance/ranking. One thing to note is that 'textual relevance' is considered before 'business relevance'. One component of textual relevance is the presence of typos. A typo-containing match (error instead of Errol) carries less weight than a typo-free match, so it will be ranked lower even when the business relevance ranking (popularity in likes/comments) is higher. Algolia is an API so each implementation can be a bit different - developers have the ability to tune the relevance formula to better suit their needs. So don't feel bad about needing an explanation, this stuff can get complicated :)
