Measured statements
In development Written by fixed rules from this reading’s stored figures. No model writes them.
On Reddit, 301 distinct people posted about gpt-oss between 26 January and 1 February 2026: 416 records, an estimated 0.16% of that week's Reddit records about AI, leaving out templated automated records (100.0% of these records had an identifiable author).
Reddit · 26 Jan – 1 Feb 2026 · author coverage 100.0% · 7 days: 7 backfilled
4 more statements withheld. No records about gpt-oss on Hacker News between 26 January and 1 February 2026. arXiv records are articles, which have no authors, so people aren’t counted. Withheld for platforms not counted this week: Bluesky and Google News.

A day counts once it has settled: once the records still expected for it are below the threshold, or, for records loaded afterwards from an archive, once they’re loaded. Coverage day by day is in this reading’s conditions. How coverage is recorded.

gpt-oss in each platform’s table
Where gpt-oss sits among every ranked subject on each platform. The heavy mark is gpt-oss; every thin mark is another subject.
#19 of 45 on Reddit301 people · ChatGPT 7,471 (#1)
45 ranked subjects, each a tick on Reddit’s own people scale, 0 to 7,471. 40 more subjects aren’t ranked: their people figures are hidden (n 0–17 people, below the threshold of 20), so they aren’t drawn.
Not ranked on Hacker News: n 0 people, below the threshold of 20 people.
Distinct people who posted about each subject on each platform, 26 Jan – 1 Feb 2026, as of 25 Sep 2026 19:30Z, from release 2026-W05’s summary table (published). Each strip is on its own scale and nothing is added across platforms: one person can post on several. arXiv and Google News carry articles, which have no authors, so they have no ranking by people.

Records published 26 Jan – 1 Feb 2026, as of 25 Sep 2026 19:30Z; in development. People count distinct platform identities and are never added across platforms. Share is gpt-oss’s records over all records AIDRAN captured on that platform in the window. Reddit’s records are its posts and comments. A normal share is gpt-oss's share of each platform's posts in the 4 earlier stored weeks of the same era (2026-W01, 2026-W02, 2026-W03, 2026-W04), per platform. Its figures are in those readings. Choose any number to see what it rests on and the records behind it.

Records about gpt-oss by community, 26 Jan – 1 Feb 2026, as of 25 Sep 2026 19:30Z; in development. Each platform is drawn on its own scale. The word after each community is its type: who is there, not what it’s about (users are people who use one AI product; builders build with AI). A record counts once, in the community it was posted in.

Change compares this reading with the previous stored reading of the same subject, usually last week’s, and both endpoints stay visible with their dates. Each value carries its n; open it for its full conditions, coverage included. Stored weeks, above, cross eras, which marks a change in how weeks were captured: March era weeks were rebuilt from archives, with live capture from 7 Mar to 31 May, Archive backfill weeks were backfilled from archives (Reddit, Hacker News and arXiv only) and September era weeks were captured live from 16 Sep and filled in from archives.
