Time for yet another brief monthly overview of local boards activity, this time with a slight delay. As always charts and table are made using data from @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja Ninjastic.space.
Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Nigerian, Bangladesh) don't have their own local boards. Not yet at least but I hope that changes in the future.
Post activity per local board during April 2022After last month's increase of activity, we are back to the decrease; during April, 18351 posts were written across local boards which is slight decrease compared to March and 19044 posts written in that period. Decrease is not big, but these things accumulate over time and numbers are generally much lower compared to year ago.
When it comes to the most active threads, there's no change compared to last few months: Russian board is far ahead, followed by Turkish and German. I do hope that situation in Russian board calmed donw, but somehow I doubt that's the case. The name that sticks out in this chart is Pakistan, as they are having great numbers considering the fact that they have only 1 topic to write all those posts (863 to be precise). I don't know what's the quality of those posts written there, but its respectable number nevertheless.
Number of posters per local board during April 2022Despite the slight decrease of the post amount, number of posters increased: during April 1372 members wrote at least one pass in local boards, which is n increase compared to March during which 1357 members were active. Talking about the boards with the most amount of active members there is no much change compared to March: Russian board is far ahead followed by the usual names.
I've been thinking about increasing the requirement as current one is only 1 post, and I am not sure that we can categorize someone as an "active member" if he wrote only 1 post in a month.
Post/user ratio per local board for April 2022This is the 2nd time that I am sharing this chart, and just confirms what we saw already, that more posts written in a board usually results with the bigger post/user ratio.
Merit shared per local board during April 2022Even though post decrease was slight, when iut comes to merit shared it was way more severe. During April, 5556 merits were shared across local boards which is a significant decrease of 20%, compared to March and 6981 merits shared. This huge decrease is mostly caused by three out of four most merited local boards (Russian, Turkish and Italian). Vast majority of other boards have decrease as well, but those three affected the result the most.
The only local board (among the more active ones at least) that has a significant increase was Croatian,but its more due fact that March was very bad month fore us, rather than this being a very good result.
Merit senders/receivers per local board for April 2022Despite the big decrease of merit shared, this chart doesn't look much different from the March one.
Merit/Post ratio per local board for April 2022Last but not the least in this series of charts is post/merit ratio. Once again Dutch board is kinda messing up the chart, but as I said before these kind of things are normal among the local boards that are no so active as you don't have to share a lot of merit to affect the ratio a lot. The most important thing is that blue color still dominates, meaning monthly ratio is still bigger than 12 months one.
The most active members per local board during April 2022And for the end of this monthly overview, list of those that are keeping their boards active. Once again joker_josue retained his title and with 294 posts he was the most active members across all local boards. GG!
