Demographics

Apropos of nothing, stats for the last month, stuff over 1%. These are stats for site page loads - i.e. hitting the main map page, the poster/booklet makers, or anything in docs/.  Any amount of time spent on the map itself counts as one data point.

Geography:

  • United States: 56%
  • United Kingdom: 13%
  • Germany: 6%
  • Australia: 5%
  • Canada: 3%
  • Japan: 3%
No real surprises there. English-speaking countries dominate, but strong showing in Germany thanks to long time support and recent innovation by 13Mann. Japan has a history of Traveller fandom as well (and awesome box art!)

Operating System:
  • Windows: 65%
  • iOS: 14%
  • Macintosh: 9%
  • Android: 6%
  • Linux: 4%
Windows use continues to decline, and mobile use is growing. Macintosh beating out Android is interesting. But the answer lies further down...

Browser:
  • Chrome: 38%
  • Firefox: 29%
  • Safari: 13%
  • IE: 11%
  • Safari (in-app): 3%
  • Opera: 3%
  • Android Browser: 2%
I would have expected Safari to make a bigger showing thanks to iOS. The good news is that "evergreen" (continually updated) browsers are 70% of the audience.

Devices:
  • Desktop: 79%
  • Tablet: 13%
  • Mobile: 8%
... and of non-desktop:
  • iPad: 49%
  • iPhone: 17%
  • ????: 5%
  • Nexus 10: 3%
  • Nexus 5: 2%
  • Nexus 7: 2%
  • Windows RT: 2%
Tablet usage higher than "mobile" (i.e. phone) usage is quite unusual. And iPad completely dominating here is also unusual. I guess the numbers support the anecdotes I've heard from users about using iPads while gaming. I rarely bust out a tablet, but I'll need to start prioritizing work in that area - e.g. making it easier to report bugs and so on.
