Starting up a new monthly post where I look at the communities in the instance to see how well all of them are doing
From this we should be able to see what communities are struggling so that they can be focused on for adding activity across the instance
My goal for december will be increasing the amount of communities that appear in the active and moderate sections and will compare to see the activity change then
For community activity levels im breaking this into 5 categories (note these stats are based on the new users/month stats in the instance)
- Lively- 5k users/month or above
- Active - 201-4999 users/month
- Moderate - 51-200 users/month
- Quiet - 11-50 users/month
- Dead - 0-10
Communities in each category
- Lively communities: 2 (1%)
- Active communities: 11 (6%)
- Moderate communities: 27 (15%)
- Quiet communities: 45 (25%)
- Dead communities: 92 (52%)
Most active communities
- !programmer_humor@programming.dev (7.4k users/month)
- !programming@programming.dev (5.12k)
- !godot@programming.dev (1.37k)
- !linux_memes@programming.dev (1.3k)
- !meta@programming.dev (1.09k)
- !software_gore@programming.dev (1.02k)
- !android@programming.dev (974)
- !rust@programming.dev (816)
- !gamedev@programming.dev (786)
- !linux@programming.dev (782)
Least active communities
(These are ones that will be prioritized for making active) (theres a lot in the dead category so these are random ones from that, not all of them)
- !mongodb@programming.dev
- !erlang@programming.dev
- !emacs@programming.dev
- !nim@programming.dev
- !flutter@programming.dev
- !terraform@programming.dev
- !devlogs@programming.dev
- !astro@programming.dev
- !swift@programming.dev
- !intellij@programming.dev
One other community that should be interesting to see the growth is the advent of code community as that is about to start
!advent_of_code@programming.dev
currently at 136 but I assume thats going to grow much larger
now hit top 10 communities of the day due to the last 2 posts
Oh wow, I guess it doesn't take too much. I copied your survey post over to r/nim with a "cross-posted from nim@programming.dev" link, and also invited the author of Enu to post here. I'll keep at it.
