Lightning Talk: Metrics, How To Measure What Is Going On In Your Community

Advice: stop reporting raw followers, stars and installs and instead measure daily weekly monthly active users, successful onboarding (first comment or first contribution) and churn points. Consolidate GitHub Slack Discord Stack Overflow data into one store using Common Room, Orbit or Savannah HQ, and fill gaps with Zapier automations. Segment members as lurkers, newbies, contributors, champions and track transitions, talks given, content created and network connections. Watch for growth phases — inception, establishment, maturity, mitosis — and surface emerging subgroup leaders.
