👁️ Noticed: community attention since 2017

Noticed measures attention: how much the community looked at and engaged with Stolen Stuff Hawaii, reported as the SSH Community Attention Index. It is the longest record in the tool, going back to July 2017.

What it is, and when it begins

The index is a number from 0 to 100 that we built. It blends attention across the SSH network: Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, X, and SSH websites. Community reports joined the mix in 2025, and searches and site visits in 2026. We use each platform's figures only to build the index, and we never publish them. The daily engagement record begins in July 2017, with dated audience snapshots from October 2015 and the monthly index from 2018.

What the SSH Signal page shows

• The index for the month, and how the month compared with all months on file and with the same month a year earlier.
• How widely attention moved across areas.
• The month's topics, with a topic search and a trend for each topic, and which topics gained or lost attention.
• Where attention was concentrated by area.
• The index's full monthly history and a typical year.
• The community's own reporting rhythm, including past holiday periods.

What it can tell you

What a community paid attention to, and when attention jumped (a widely shared post, a viral incident). Next to the incident signals, it shows the difference between what happened and what people noticed.

What it cannot tell you

It is never an incident count. A high reading means a large audience was paying attention, not that more crime occurred. Reading attention as crime is the most common mistake with this signal.
