Are you still going to keep DT1-strength.txt updated in the future?
Yes. It gets weekly updates.

Personally that data is a lot easier to deal with as is only around 250 rows, whereas the other being 1000+ is a bit exhausting for myself + laptop.
I know the feeling, spreadsheets aren't very cooperative when creating graphs out of large tables.

To be honest most of the time was having to copy/paste graphs and change the sources slightly, in order to keep the DT1 graphs as they were.

The hard part is done even if updating the data can be slow, especially with graph loading times.

If you want an update for the full DT-data in the future, just post. I don't do automated updates for the full DT-data because it takes hours to process the millions of individual HTML files. It works, but the way I store the data wasn't designed for this.

Make sense, happy to leave it for a while. Not enough changes month to month let alone week to week for it to be worth updating that regularly imo. The DT1 updates are good enough for that for when any drastic changes occur. I'd otherwise say DT1 and DT data looks quite steady right now after 4 years, with only DT members and excluded DT members continuing increasing compared to DT1 eligibility that has mostly levelled out now surprisingly. There must be as many users going offline or wiping their trust lists as there are becoming eligible for DT1 in order to maintain a balance for now.
