TL;DR
Hi everyone, I scraped a few thousand posts from this sub in the past months and analyzed it.
Long story short, we care about health insurances, cars, sbb and a few of us have a lot to say, usually twice a day just before noon and right after work. If it isn’t our landlord we talk about Donald Trump. We feel best on Sunday until Monday, then we need help to look for a job.
We give SBB a chance on Monday, then take our cars on Fridays.
We mainly complain about Ricardo and vent our frustrations here. Migros gets more mentions and less hate. We like (upvote) people who are grateful more than complainers.

That sounds about right.
That’s cool! FWIW we can access similar data as the mod team, and here’s some interesting info:
– We had 48.3 Million views in the past 12 months, that’s 12.8 more than the year before.
– In total, that sums up to 544’000 unique visitors – that’s a lot!
– We’ve seen 21’200 posts, 5000 more than the year before. Additionally, we removed almost 19k posts – that’s a lot, please read the rules lmao
– In total, there were 795’000 comments! That’s such a huge increase – almost 50% more than the year before!!
Interestingly, we’ve seen the most unique users in February, but the most visits in October.
The most viewed post was about a racist pamphlet I do not care to share again, but the second mostly used one was [about an SBB compartment filled with bags](https://www.reddit.com/r/Switzerland/comments/1jcji5u/is_this_infuriating_for_everyone_am_i_finally_so/)…
Oh and one more: You guys really help us with your reports – that’s actually grand! 1248 of you reported questions from non-resident, whcih helps us quickly remove those and redirect them to r/askswitzerland. However, over 700 reported threats of violence or physical harm. Those are typically wrong and honestly it’s a bit annoying…. but still appreciated when it’s correct!
Nice graphs but would like to note that this data is incomplete until you also use the non-expat Swiss subs like:
r/schwiiz, r/suisse, r/buenzli and the few cities subs*
*except r/zurich
You’ve got student twice under people.
Nice analysis, quite interesting!
> We feel best on Sunday until Monday, then we need help to look for a job.
Relatable.
I really love that there are nerds like you out ther doing these random things 💪💪💪
Love it! Would you mind sharing what tools/methods you’ve used from scrapping to analysis? Would love to learn more about this & your approach
