I haven't got a clue. I sort of rely on @davidw 's posts. If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears.
How about just a finger in the wind guesstimate?
Do you feel like more people are posting, commenting, and zapping?

#486959 has some easy to digest charts. All of the above for ~booksandarticles

That's awesome! It looks like ~booksandarticles is right at the top of a lot of those.

Oh yeah. I really do. It varies by week, but the overall trend is up. I also like that new people are posting while the consistent quality content producers don't seem to be losing interest.
I see the territory being a natural fit for subs when they become available. There is a clear distinction between original creative writing, on the one hand, and essays, reviews and discussion on the other. I want to keep developing and improving both.
I also want to focus on keeping quality old content visible and easily accessible. Next week, I'm going to start picking out an old, very popular post to feature each week as a sort of golden oldie. I'll write something about it and hopefully give it a second life here on SN.

That's a great idea. I recall someone pitching an idea for SN to feature something like "the best all-time posts from this date" as a way of resurrecting great content.

I always thought that was a good idea. Before territories I used to toy with the idea of putting out a recurring post featuring one old post from SN's first year.

Sometimes I browse the top all-time posts, to see if I missed anything good. I should probably do something to highlight them, though.

I also do that, though I would like to be able to account for top posts during time periods when stackers were being miserly. Maybe zaprank accounts for that? I'm not sure.
reply
I was just wondering about how zaprank works with those older posts, too. I'm guessing the top post rankings evolve over time as our trust scores change.
