Yeah I do like the pattern, but I should also point out that it’s really just a very quick exploration using a generative model. The underlying pattern is from Duolingo. So they certainly put a lot of work into this, it’s a core driver of the app:
I was just referencing that pattern and giving a rather simple instruction in Figma Make:
Generate a trust level progression indicator for Discourse. Trust levels are explained in Understanding Discourse Trust Levels
The indicator should follow the attached design. Give tips about what’s missing to move forward without revealing the exact metrics. E.g. “Spread the love”, “Stay curious and read”, “Share your knowledge”.
And that more or less produced the cards I shared above. I think it’s great that we can quickly explore a design direction like this. On the other hand the investment can be a bit misleading because it often looks so polished, when it’s really just a quick exploration. In this case just this idea how it could look if we not only stated some numbers, but visualized the overall trust level progression.
