minus-squareDanlinkfedilink80•2 years agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sampling_(statistics) A doubling of usage amongst steam users is probably representative of a large uptake of Godot overall
minus-square@MJBrune@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink19•2 years agoEh, I feel like the sampling is clearly biased toward those who would install a game engine through a service that auto-updates it. (Novices and hobbyists.)
minus-square@derpgon@programming.devlinkfedilink16•2 years agoAnd - thats exactly what that means…? An uptake in GODOT usage would mean novices and newbies are trying it out. Every new user is a newbie.
minus-square@MJBrune@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•2 years agoSure but it doesn’t really reflect the studios switching to Godot. I think they are likely switching to unreal.
minus-square@derpgon@programming.devlinkfedilink2•2 years agoOf course it doesn’t, it’s a number that days how many people are running the app, that’s it.
minus-square@MJBrune@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•2 years agoYup just pointing that out because some folks aren’t seeing that. Not everything is an argument.
minus-squareCethinlinkfedilinkEnglish7•2 years agoFor sure an uptick, but who knows by how much? I agree this is useful for showing something, but it’s hard to know what really from this alone.
minus-square@Knusper@feddit.delinkfedilink5•2 years agoI imagine, Godot doesn’t collect usage data on its own. So, this is likely the best data there is…
