Model Performance package about easystats HOT 5 CLOSED

Note for future, logo ideas could include (to keep consistency ^^) a roaring monster with either a small person measuring its height with a ruler, or the monster in front of a jury holding some panels with grades (e.g., 7 - 9 - 8). With a different colour scheme to both keep consistency in the content and theme and underline the packages distinctiveness.

If we keep that theme, maybe the distribution in bayestestR's logo could be a ghost (inspired by this)... And report's logo could be another monster next to a black and white sketchy drawing of that same monster on a paper sheet (representing the "report" of an object on a sheet)... Alright I think you have to stop me I'm going too far haha

However philosophically this "monster" analogy makes sense; doing stats, using R and stats models are often seen as something frightening that are too complex/hard to overcome, and the goal of easystats is to help users defeating their beasts, and help them rule the unruly models 😅

I also like the "monster" analogy, or something similar. A ghost would indeed fit to bayestestR. I also uses the paranormal-distribution ghost in one of my lectures... :-)

Note for future related to the performance package, someone recently dug out an old thread related to the R2 for Bayesian models. To my knowledge, no packages implement an easy way of extracting different R2 metrics for Bayesian mixed model (and their posterior distribution). However, it seems to be feasible (hence my original question on sjtats 😅).

I reckon that if we succeed in implementing such R2 metrics computation for Bayesian mixed models, it would be a very useful star feature (that could attract new users).
