Explore the data
Exact published metrics for r/InstructionalDesign. Rising and Falling compare the current seven-day window 2026-10-07 → 2026-10-13 with the previous seven days 2026-09-30 → 2026-10-06 ( complete UTC days; 313 current vs 366 comparison analyzed records). Signals appear only with at least 5 distinct posts or comments behind them — the current window for Rising, the comparison window for Falling; the CSV export still contains the complete published metric set. Most discussed uses the current analysis lookback (2026-09-14 → 2026-10-14) — frequency, never trending.
