Communities on TalkFuse compete on a leaderboard – and we’ve just made that competition fair.

Points earned where they’re earned

The “Top communities” board used to add up members’ overall points, which meant one busy member could lift every community they’d ever joined. Now it counts only the points actually earned inside each community. Every vote, comment and share lifts the community it happened in – and nothing else.

Why it matters

It means communities genuinely compete on how active they are, not on who happens to have joined them. A small, lively community can now out-rank a large, quiet one – exactly as it should be.

Get involved

The upshot is simple: getting stuck into a community directly helps it climb the table. Vote on its stories, join the discussion, share something good – and watch it rise. Find the leaderboard in your Progress hub.
