Activity pattern
Why r/ADHD is classified as Steady
Oscylo reads the newest 52 weeks of posts, comments and unique contributors and gives each subreddit one of the patterns below. The figures behind the label are shown beside it.
r/ADHD shows no strong, consistent direction across contributions and contributors. Individual weeks can still vary.
How the label is read
The busiest four weeks against the quietest, with the yearly trend taken out. At 2.5× or more the year counts as concentrated: Seasonal if the busy weeks came at the same time in earlier years, Event-driven if they did not, and Variable when there is too little history to tell.
To be considered Rising, a subreddit needs posts and comments up 20% or more over the year, with unique contributors also rising. Cooling is the same in reverse, and anything between is Steady. The trend is a line fitted through all 52 weeks, so a single busy week barely moves it.

The 52 weeks before are drawn on the same calendar, so each week lines up with the matching week of the previous year.
