Stack Exchange — tor.stackexchange.com
The content of tor.stackexchange.com (https://tor.stackexchange.com/), a Stack Exchange question-and-answer site, as published in the Stack Exchange Data Dump of April 2024 on the Internet Archive. The posts table holds 26,319 rows: 13,117 posts (5,792 questions, 7,087 answers, 115 tag wiki excerpts, 115 tag wikis, 7 posts of type 6 and 1 post of type 7) and 13,202 comments, written between 25 September 2013 and 24 March 2024. Beside it are 28,217 user accounts, 32,892 votes, 29,408 badges awarded, 217 tags, 48,563 post revisions and 1,363 links between posts. Every answer keeps the question it answers and every comment the post it was written on, so the threads can be rebuilt. The Internet Archive item describes the dump as anonymised; the votes table names the voter in only 50 rows.
