Since there's no need to slack every month (and to show that I can publish it in the reasonable time frame), here is the brief monthly overview of the local boards activity for January 2023. As always, charts and table are made with the help of @DdmrDdmr
Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja
Ninjastic.space.
Communities marked with * (Pakistan and Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards but based on their activity I think that they deserve their spot here and hopefully their status change soon, like it was recently with Nigerian local board.
Post activity per local board during January 2023During above mentioned period, 15533 posts were written across 18 local boards, which is a solid 12% increase compared to December numbers (13861), that was actually pretty bad so its good to see that we immediately recovered to November 2022 numbers.
As usual, standard names are at the top: Russian board far ahead with 5279 posts, followed by Turkish (2044) and German (1622). Nigerian board was a surprisingly high last month with 890 posts, which is a big increase compared to December and 291 posts written in that period. One more proof that giving them their local board was a right move and I wouldn't be surprised if they endanger the German board at the 3rd spot in the near future. Another board that deserves to be mentioned in Greek board, that had ~350% increase compared to December ( from 49 posts to 197). I don't know what changed there guys, but keep it up.
When it comes to communities without local board, Pakistan needs to be mentioned again as they keep their numbers really high month after month and I think that that they really deserve their local board.
Number of active members per local board during January 2023Since number of posts written increased in January, no surprise that the same thing happened with number of active members; from 1181 during December to 1248 during January which is a solid 5% increase. Number of active member per board usually don't change much in two months period, but Nigerian board was yet again exception with 40% increase, probably caused due them finally getting their own local board.
Just to note that I count every member who wrote at least 1 during above mentioned period post as being active.
After I did it for
yearly local boards overview, I've decided to add this chart to monthly overview as well and we see how it goes. So, members are divided in 3 groups: 1 post, 2-9 posts and 10+, making it relatively similar to the groups made for yearly overview.
When it comes to group of members who wrote only 1 post during January, Indian board has the most of them relative to the total number of active members (61%) followed by Russian (49%) and Spanish (43%). On the other hand, local boards with the lowest amount of such members are Nigerian (17%), Italian (128%) and Arabic (20%).
In the 2-9 posts group, Arabic board with 48% is ahead of others, followed by Indonesian (45%) and Pilipinas (44%) boards, while on the other side are Russian board (24%) and Turkish, Spanish and Pakistan all with 31% members falling into that group.
In the 10+ posts written during January, Croatian board is ahead of the others with 47% of members belonging to that group, followed by Pakistan (42 %) and Turkish & Nigerian both with 40% members writing 10+ posts in that period. At the same time, Indian board didn't have a single member that wrote 10+ posts. followed by Bangladesh (17%) and French (22%) boards.
By the way, this chart is still work in progress so I would appreciate the feedback. Cheers!
Merit shared per local board during January 2023Increase in number of written posts was naturally followed by a slight increase in the amount merits shared; from 6347 in December to 6552 in January. It may seem like a small increase (and it is with 3%) but I'll take any increase at this point. Once again Russian board was far ahead of others with 1501 merits shared, with German (880) and Turkish (700) behind them.
On the bottom we see the usual names, but I do hope that will change soon as some of those boards are quite active (Pilipinas) and Greek activity went up as well so hopefully that will soon reflect in increased number of merits shared too.
Merit senders and receivers per local board during January 2023Nothing much to say about this chart other than it mostly follows the amount of merit shared, with some exceptions like Pilipinas, Nigerian and Indonesian board that have high amount of merit senders/receivers compared with the amount of merit shared.
Merit/Post ratio per local board for January 2023During January 2023, an average merit/post ratio across local board was 0.51, which is a decrease compared to December (0.64) but its still pretty good imho (at least for majority of local boards). Arabic board is yet again back at the top with an awesome 1.46 merit/post ratio and behind them are Spanish local (1.05) and French (0.85).
Usual names are are the bottom, and while I can somewhat understand Greek board having low average since they had a big increase in post activity, Pilipinas board has this situation for (iirc) more than year and they definitely need more merit sources as their current ratio is on the par with the most spammy general boards and somehow i doubt that level of discussion is so low there that it justifies that.
