The long awaited brief overview of the local board activity is finally here, with the help of @DdmrDdmr
Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja
ninjastic space.
Communities marked with * don't have their own local boards (yet).
Post activity per local board during August 2021After several months of absence due the way Merit Dashboard counts the post, Russian board is back on the charts. After some deliberatio I've decided to use ninjastic.space when it comes to Russian board (from the next month I will expand that to other boards as well) post count as by the looks of it there is a lot of things going on there, with topics being deleted/moved around month after month, constantly affecting the numbers. They will be slighly inflated as it will include deleted posts, but I guess we will have to live with it.
Regarding the activity of the other boards, there is no much change compared to July 2021 as top 10 stayed pretty much, with relatively similar numbers. Now when summer is behind us, hopefully numbers go up.
Communities without local board are still looking strong, with Pakistan board being the most active one, followed by Nigerian and are looking pretty good compared to those with local board, especially considering the constrictions of writing everything in one thread which definitely affects their numbers.
Merit shared per local board during August 2021Compared to July 2021, total amount of merit shared during August stayed approximately the same ( 6905 in July vs 6860 in August). No changes at the top; Russian board is far ahead the others, followed by Turkish, Italian and German.
I don't know what's happening with German board, but they used to be 2nd most merited board for a long time, often having around 1000 merit shared, but lately their numbers keep going down. Another "looser" during August was Portuguese board as their number of merit shared dropped by 50%, from 372 during July to only 187 in August which is low number for one of the most active local boards.
Merit senders and receivers per local board during August 2021One more chart that looks similar to previous one, with usual names at the top. It's good to see that both German and Portuguese boards are keeping their numbers relatively high, despite the decrease of merit shared.
Merit/Post ratio per local board for June 2021Once again blue colour dominates the chart (with a few exceptions) meaning majority of boards benefited from the recent increase in source merit. Let's hope it stayes the same in months to come so that red color keeps increasing as well.
The most active members per local board during August 2021For the end of this overview, list of top 10 most active members per local board. Kudos to them for keeping their boards alive and kicking!
