I’m going to do a relatively quick info-dump, and then maybe follow up with some additional analysis and commentary later.

I may come back and just do 2024-2025, but I thought it’d be interesting to look at our entire history first:

All date ranges are 2017-04-20 to 2025-04-20, and all data is included with the exception of Trending Search Terms which I’ve truncated to the top 20.

Feel free to ask any questions, and suggestions are welcome for better ways to present the data.

The last image, “trending search terms”, has had me laughing out loud for the last five minutes.

The fact that “penguin” ranks three places above “elon musk” is, what’s the right word?
Serendipitous maybe?

Anyway, thanks for the chuckle, I needed that.
