Measured statements
In development Written by fixed rules from this reading’s stored figures. No model writes them.
On Reddit, 272 distinct people posted about Gemma between 12 and 18 January 2026: 353 records, an estimated 0.14% of that week's Reddit records about AI, leaving out templated automated records (99.7% of these records had an identifiable author).
Reddit · 12–18 Jan 2026 · author coverage 99.7% · 7 days: 7 backfilled
5 more statements withheld. n 1 people, below the threshold of 20 people. arXiv records are articles, which have no authors, so people aren’t counted. Withheld for platforms not counted this week: Bluesky, Google News and Exa.
What this reading rests on
| Platform | Days counted | How the records were collected |
|---|---|---|
| 7 of 7 | Loaded afterwards from an archive | |
| Hacker News | 7 of 7 | Loaded afterwards from an archive |
| arXiv | 7 of 7 | Loaded afterwards from an archive |
Not counted: Bluesky, YouTube, Google News and Exa, not being collected yet.
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.
This reading was made with methods that are still being validated. Every figure says which state it’s in.

Gemma in each platform’s table
Where Gemma sits among every ranked subject on each platform. The heavy mark is Gemma; every thin mark is another subject.
#20 of 42 on Reddit272 people · ChatGPT 7,659 (#1)
42 ranked subjects, each a tick on Reddit’s own people scale, 0 to 7,659. 43 more subjects aren’t ranked: their people figures are hidden (n 0–18 people, below the threshold of 20), so they aren’t drawn.
Not ranked on Hacker News: n 1 people, below the threshold of 20 people.
Distinct people who posted about each subject on each platform, 12–18 Jan 2026, as of 25 Sep 2026 19:30Z, from release 2026-W03’s summary table (published). Each strip is on its own scale and nothing is added across platforms: one person can post on several. arXiv, Google News and Exa carry articles, which have no authors, so they have no ranking by people.
Attention
How many people posted about Gemma on each platform, and Gemma’s share of that platform’s records. One row per platform, each on its own terms.

Not counted this week. Bluesky, Google News and Exa have no day in this window that counts, so they have no figures here.
Hacker News. People hidden: n 1 people, below the threshold of 20 people. Share and records hidden: n 1 records, below the threshold of 20 records.

Records published 12–18 Jan 2026, as of 25 Sep 2026 19:30Z; in development. People count distinct platform identities and are never added across platforms. Share is Gemma’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 gemma's share of each platform's posts in the 2 earlier stored weeks of the same era (2026-W01, 2026-W02), per platform. Its figures are in those readings. Choose any number to see what it rests on and the records behind it.

Records about Gemma by community, 12–18 Jan 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.
