Your wish is my command! After delving a little deeper into the data, I’ve compiled some extra information for you here.

A Community full of helping hands

Users on the Digitec and Galaxus websites ask 231 questions a day on average. That’s about 80,000 questions over the entire year. However, the Community doesn’t just ask questions – it also answers around two thirds of them.

Stardustone was the most helpful member of the Galaxus Community last year, answering a whopping 1,117 Community questions. That’s a record for 2023. With an answer to (pretty much) everything, he’s basically the Chuck Norris of Galaxus. It’s also worth mentioning that his answers were rated as helpful 218 times. Thank you!

Causing a stir in the Community: dark mode and delivery dramas

Our Community kicked off 3,417 threads in 2023. That’s nearly 10 per day. Two topics generated particularly heated debate.

Dark mode is an issue that’s been on our users’ minds for five years now. We granted the Community’s wish, launching dark mode on Digitec and Galaxus in October 2023.

Community members expressed their thanks.

With a vote score of +1,531, a thread entitled DarkTheme for the Digitec website, created by user Darklingking, received the highest ever score for a discussion. The vote score indicates how often users have liked (+1) or disliked (-1) a post.

A discussion about «shipping with Planzer» was the most-voted thread of 2023. In total, it received over 200 thumbs-ups or thumbs-downs as well as about 300 comments.

Upvote and downvote of the year
