I do sometimes, but it's very Lemmy that it can find threads with zero comments, even though sorting for new comments.
that's intentional for threads with 0 comments to show up

"New Comments: Bumps posts to the top when they are created or receive a new reply, analogous to the sorting of traditional forums"
traditional forums also showed threads with 0 comments (or else obviously no one would ever be able to see them and comment in the first place lol)
Fair enough.
