In the tradition of post #8076361, it is time once more to look at some numbers. To begin with, I've now uploaded 8.3% of all the yuri on the site, up from 5% last August at the time of my 10,000th upload.
Looking at the top yuri uploaders for each month of the last year (May 2024 through April 2025), the leaderboard is pretty consistent. I am always #1, usually in the range of 900-1500 yuri uploads per month. user #480070 is usually second place, in the 300-500 range. user #589498 is usually third place, with 100-300 posts. The only exceptions to this were in June 2024, when user #1109264 took third place, and August and October 2024 when user #589498 surpassed user #480070 to take second place. Fourth place varies a lot more. user #1146403 appears as fourth place the most frequently (5 times), followed by user #568280 (3 times) and user #796786 (2 times).
The most popular yuri copyright in the last year was, predictably, original (5587 posts). Second place, to absolutely no one's surprise, is Bang Dream! (5347) followed by BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!! (4903) posts. This is due solely to the two biggest yuri uploaders being huge fans of the latter copyright. Bang Dream was obviously completely carried by MyGo—if you separated Bang Dream into MyGo and non-MyGo, MyGo would still take second place and non-MyGo wouldn't even be on the list. Fourth place is the Honkai (series) umbrella tag (3596 posts) followed by the Love Live! umbrella tag (3154 posts), and Honkai: Star Rail (2886 posts). After that comes Girls Band Cry, Link! Like! Love Live!, Touhou, Genshin Impact and Hololive.
Around the time of post #8076361 (August 2024), yuri posts were on average 158/day. April 2025 was slightly lower, at 145/day. Overal site uploads were 4481/day in August 2024, and 5083/day in April 2025, so yuri has shrunk slightly as a proportion of overall site uploads. March was 153 yuri posts per day and February was 167, so it seems that daily yuri uploads, with the current set of yuri uploaders, has plateaued and will probably stay around the 150 posts/day mark.
