OpenStore Stats for 2024

[bhdouglass]

Happy new year everyone! I have the latest round of stats pulled from the OpenStore for your enjoyment. I don't think there is anything crazy in there since last year, but it still shows steady growth.

Also, while I have your attention I invite you to check out the preview for the next iteration of the OpenStore's website: https://next.open-store.io/ . If you run into any issues or have any suggestions I invite you to report them over on GitLab.

@bhdouglass Thanks for sharing these remarkable details. Am so proud that number us UT users exceeds 10,000 people, and looking forward to surpass it as well.

Happy New year.

@bhdouglass Thank you and happy new year!

I have one question concerning the open store start page: What is the criteria for an app to appear in these areas. E.g. I would also expect that DeltaTouch would appear in "Chat Connection":

[bhdouglass]

@Schlicki2808 those apps that appear on the home page of the OpenStore are manually chosen which is why you might not see all apps that you would expect.

@bhdouglass happy new year ^__^
