I recently migrated a phpBB forum with about 1400 users to Discourse. Other than a handful of accounts, all of the digests seem to be sent starting at 8 AM. Is there some way to assign the users a random time between 00:00 and 23:00? – Geoff

I don’t know but I was told (by AI): https://ask.discourse.com/discourse-ai/ai-bot/shared-ai-conversations/wisnZ2lMtzSY1ji_QM8BiA Click saver: no, if AI knew and wasn’t hallucinating.

Checking the email logs, everything is now spread out evenly. Thanks for your help!
