Stack Exchange — cardano.stackexchange.com
The content of cardano.stackexchange.com (https://cardano.stackexchange.com/), a Stack Exchange question-and-answer site, as published in the Stack Exchange Data Dump of April 2024 on the Internet Archive. The posts table holds 11,928 rows: 6,737 posts (2,743 questions, 3,828 answers, 78 tag wiki excerpts, 78 tag wikis and 10 posts of type 6) and 5,191 comments, written between 27 April 2021 and 25 March 2024. Beside it are 8,404 user accounts, 16,705 votes, 9,944 badges awarded, 265 tags, 18,084 post revisions and 307 links between posts. Every answer keeps the question it answers and every comment the post it was written on, so the threads can be rebuilt. The Internet Archive item describes the dump as anonymised; the votes table names the voter in only 20 rows.
