Comment (by arma):
I would also be interested in stats about users and usage (including e.g.
number of users being handled divided by number of snowflakes handling
them), but I recognize anything involving the users is a more complicated
topic, and we shouldn't do things that could put users at risk without
sorting through what we ought to protect and how we can make sure it's
being protected.
So, step one, tell me more about the snowflakes please. :)
One other concrete thing that I want: how many times are you giving
snowflakes out? How many times did you stop giving a snowflake out because
you've given it out so many times already? These questions tie into the
address distribution algorithm question: it's not clear how to pick the
right parameters in a vacuum, but we're not *in* a vacuum, so maybe we can
gain some intuition by seeing how things play out in practice.
