Chart is a little misleading starting at 7% instead of zero, but still a nice surge nevertheless.

True. Other people asked so they posted another one.

[-] IzzyScissor@lemmy.world 34 points 7 months ago

IMO, this makes it look even worse.

[-] Cqrd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 29 points 7 months ago

That's why they started with the one they did

[-] Pirky@lemmy.world 17 points 7 months ago

Even then, this is still a solid 30-40% increase in downloads. That's statistically significant right there.

Worse, or... "better"?

[-] steersman2484@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

Does not look as nice, but is way less misleading

The total numbers are so small that the shape of the line barely matters. 7-10k installs daily? In the mobile browser market? There are plant identification apps with better numbers.

Is that 7% or 7,000 installs total? The axis isn’t labeled!!

[-] Pirky@lemmy.world 46 points 7 months ago

I see a k following the numbers, so I'm assuming that's total number of downloads.

[-] matticusrex@lemmy.world 23 points 7 months ago

Article states installs per day

[-] Kinglink@lemmy.world -4 points 7 months ago

Not even seven percent. Lol. Seven thousand which is probably like .0001 percent.

[-] the_kung_fu_emu@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

That's new daily installs though, so cumulative number. I don't think they're trying to draw a comparison, just show the increase.
