WOw - those soccer stat discussions seem to be sticky! Very well done. Has it held up since you last posted on this in 2017?
Here are my numbers on one of my sites using discourse:
This leads to another question / feature set…
It would be interesting to have Discourse (the company) have a checkbox on every Admin Interface for every Discourse forum where it allows you to share your forums’ stats that are gathered and shared via the admin interface (anonymously so your specific site is not identified) - to a main Discourse-managed server that would then provide insights and comparisons on your site’s interactions, growth, segment, etc - compared to all the other Discourse forums. Sort of a crowd-sourced insights feature that helps sites understand what is going on in their forums compared to other forums, and allow the admins to self identify in a given category (e.g. some standard industry classifications - for healthcare, gaming, sports, etc.. related forums.
I’m just looking for ways to increase the cycle speed for learning and ultimately improving the success of all discourse-based forums. Seems like something Discourse would want to provide, and gives them another way to help users, and forum managers, and increase the speed of innovation for all of us.
