Users are discussing the addition of personalized, TripAdvisor-style data summaries for individual users, both on their profile pages and via periodic newsletters (e.g., monthly). mak23 proposed highlighting stats like most-viewed and most-liked topics/posts, and even suggested including badges or next-step goals. codinghorror agreed, emphasizing that such data should appear on the user page — including popular topics created, most-liked posts, and top likers — and noted these stats could also be included in digest emails. mak23 reiterated support, sharing a screenshot of TripAdvisor’s monthly email as inspiration, praising its engaging, personalized tone. erlend_sh added ideas like surfacing ‘missed’ trending topics or under-read content, suggesting bulk delivery rather than constant notifications. alefattorini endorsed the newsletter concept, noting it boosts engagement. mcwumbly questioned whether this would enhance the existing digest, to which erlend_sh affirmed it should build on, not replace, current digests. codinghorror noted that much of this is already addressed by the new summary tab on user pages, but suggested integrating some stats into digest emails for inactive users. The thread centers on enriching user experience through personalized, digestible data — both on-platform and via email — inspired by travel platforms’ successful models.
Any chance to consider a newsletter style emails per user highlighting statistics of their posts and topics?
It could have the number of views and likes for all topics (and maybe posts if possible) and the number of likes at the top of the email, with most viewed topic and most liked topic in the body.
Also can mention the next badge that can be earned by the user
It sounds kind of intriguing, but could you please update your posts with screenshots from TripAdvisor and possibly some mockups of your own?
I’d like to see something I as a user would be genuinely interested in seeing in my inbox.
Also, I doubt I’d want to review this type of information more frequently than every month, at most. Probably bi-monthly.
I like these concepts but I think they should be available on your user page
the posts you made that were most liked (your “greatest hits”)
who you liked the most, who liked you the most
popular topics you created
next badge progress
totally agree with you @codinghorror, would be great to have this on the user page but also as a periodic newsletter, maybe monthly? check out the one from trip advisor, i always enjoyed reading them emails 
they are sent once a month
and in the same email:
since my community is still in infancy stage, every encouragement to early users is highly appreciated
Just dropping a couple more ideas I had in here for safe-keeping.
Unlike the kind of “progress bar for your forum participation” already suggested, I figured this system should also encompass “anything interesting you might have missed”. This kind of info is best done in bulk instead of a steady stream though, or else it’s just another New/Unread that you’ll be reading intently every time you visit.
Trending topics you might have missed (i.e. topics high in Top that you have not read)
Topics matching saved searches that you haven’t read yet.
I vote for user page + newsletter, periodic email is more engaging and tell me “Ehi man, you rock go ahead!”
Are we all assuming that this information would be an enhancement to the existing digest? (That’s how I’m interpreting it).
/cc @erlend_sh
I certainly think that’s the approach most worth pursuing, yes. We shouldn’t be adding yet another email sendout; we’re close enough to email overload as it is 
OK, I updated the title.
I believe most of this is met by the new summary tab on the user page, which is the default tab?
I wonder if some of these stats could show in the summary digest emails we send to inactive users, perhaps.
