Just wondering if you keep a count on how many times each of the three versions are downloaded? XFCE, Plasma, and Fluxbox?

Thanks

(just curious)

I have sourceforge numbers for mx23's original isos. I'll see if I can find them and post them.

the largest is the 64bit standard Xfce iso. Well north of 100,000 downloads over its 2.5 month period. the current 23.1 iso is around 22,000 for the last 12 days.

I don't have torrent data, nor data from the mirrors.

Cool. Thank you.

July 31 to October 15, 2023

xfce
64 108,129
32 22,558
ahs 30,554

fluxbox
64 16,454
32 6030

KDE
64 41,376


september snapshot (Sept 15 to Oct 15)
64 xfce -9423 (set as default on sourceforge)
64 kde - 349

That's great. Thank you very much.

It seems to me like the KDE download ratio is increasing although KDE is not the default ISO on SourceForge, it's now at 38% compared to the Xfce 64bit.

It does look like it, I agree. MXFB is consistently 50pct of kde, which I don't think is awful.

That's what I was wondering. Figured KDE was pretty close to XFCE in numbers.

The KDE spin is just primo. It's like Warren is still the man behind the curtain. You guys have done a fantastic job with it, and I am truly grateful. As good as the Xfce spin is, I just am not as comfortable with it as I am with KDE. It was a wish come true when you guys decided to make it a supported offering. That's when I was able to finally come back home.
