The 4 previously mentioned communities do not profit from the change. Although some communities improve in one statistic, they do not improve accross the field as shown in the other 6 communities. The 1st question statistic decreases in all 4 communities. With the exception of math.stackexchange.com, all of these communities do not improve in the followup question statistic. In all communities the vote score is on a (worse) downward trend after the change. Also, the sentiment values are decreasing after the change.
When looking at the results of SuperUser, the community stands out and shows interesting results. After about 6 mouths after the change the community the number of 1st questions triple. This level of new questions continues for 7 before the the number go down towards the previous levels. In the same time frame the vote score and sentiment take a significant dive. After that the sentiment returns almost to the previous level while the vote score only increases mildly.

Summarizing, the change introduced by StackExchange clearly improved the engagement in 6 of the 10 investigated communities. Sentiment, vote score, and number (1st and follow-up questions) rose as a result. The other 4 communities do not profit from the change. Although, many statistics jump up to a higher level the downward trends are not stopped. The statistics of SuperUser show a large influx of new users about 6 months after the change sending the sentiment and vote score on a deep dive and with the decrease in new users they raise again. However, this event is not related to the change but the magnitude of the huge change in new user numbers renders the analysis uncomparable.
