As always, new month means new overview of the local boards activity, this time for the month of December 2020.
Like in all previous overviews, data was taken from @DdmrDdmr
Merit Dashboard which I suggest you check if you want more in depth overview of your own local board. For the overview of most active users per local board during 2020, I used another great tool, @TryNinja
ninjastic.space. I wholeheartedly suggest you check that one too, if you haven't already.
Post activity per local board during December 2020Once again Turkish local board has been the most active one, so last month wasn't just an exception, followed by Russian and German local boards. From what I could see, main reason why Russian board is not dominantly at the top like in all those previous months is due significant decrease in Russian altcoin section activity.
Majority of other local boards are keeping decent activity, but it is worth to mention that some of the numbers might be misleading due big amount of moved/deleted posts across several local boards, so they might appear less active than they actually were.
To be honest, I expected local boards to be even more active than in previous months due bull market, but I guess effects still haven't kicked in fully.
Merit shared per local board during December 2020Once again there is a change at the top, German board having one of the best months since I am making these overviews, followed closely by Russian local board, with Turkish and Italian ranked 3rd and 4th. It's also nice to see two communities without local board (Bangladesh and Pakistan) having decent merit activity considering total lack (AFAIK) of merit sources that are active in their thread.
Merit senders/receivers per local board during November 2020Pretty straightforward chart in which more merit shared usually means more members involved, with a few standard exceptions.
Merit/Post ratio per local board during December 2020Due high amount of deleted/moved posts in various boards which would affect this chart a lot, I decided to make an exception this month and beside monthly merit/post ratio to include ratio in the last 12 months, to give somewhat clearer picture of the situation.
Several boards lack either December or 12 months merit/post ratio, and that is due negative post count during last month or due lack of data for previous months. One exception here is Romanian board which would have more than 11 merit/post ratio during December due many deleted posts which would completely mess up this chart so I decided to exclude their monthly data and share only 12 months value.
As always, please don't read too much into this chart as it can be misleading, including 12 months values.
The most active members during 2020 per local boardSo far in all these overviews I never mentioned the members that are keeping their local boards alive and active, but since it's a new year I decided to make an exception and mention the most active members in each local board. Due obvious reasons I can't mention each and every member that was active in local board, so I narrowed it down to ten most active ones, including their post count. I've decided to exclude few dead boards like Hebrew and Skandinavsk from this list.
