Disappointing DistroWatch UT usage poll results so far.
-
Hi.
I always vote on the latest poll each Monday. This morn, I saw this. As of typing, only 9% used UT and liked it. Any change more from here could boost those numbers?
I think a 'I use it and like it' option could have been included.
How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

@opolork I rather like seeing the relatively high number for I have not used it and want to. That's our future!
Is currently using an Op5t
Also owns an Op1, a BQ E4.5 and an Xperia X, as well as a BQ tablet and a Pinetab2. Please, someone... make it stop. -

That's a good point!

Those are people who are happily using Android or iOS, plus those who do not have or want a smartphone. I would not take that so personally.

Up to 13% now for the "I have used it and like it:" option.
-
This is what I see now after voting :
I have used it and like it: 120 (14%)
I have used it and do not like it: 21 (2%)
I have not used it and want to: 323 (37%)
I have not used it and do not wish to: 420 (48%)I hope 50% of the voters has no idea what they are talking about or are just trolling!

I think with UT being heavily gesture based....it can be a bit marmite for many people. Some love it and some do not. You'll never win everyone
-
@nero355 maybe rewording would help, that 48% might include ppl that simple aren't interested into UT and are just fine with Android / iOS, it doesnt mean that those ppl dislike it. Perhaps this would have led to a different result:
I have used UT and I like it
I have used UT and dislike it
I have NOT used UT and like it
I have NOT used UT and dislike it
I don't know UT and don't plant to investigate it -
@opolork
Yes the option "i use it" is lacking.
Also i notice 52% vote for "i use, i used, i would use".
37% people that could come to UT is big.
Sad actual users and previous are in same category. -
@keneda Yes, I guess we should see the positives in it. The poll was haphazardly done.

Another fine option is to ignore it completely. It's just a website.

So is Jolla Sailfish and people seem to really like it ?!
The same goes for Android when they went all "Gestures & Swipes" instead of Hard/Soft buttons
-
@nero355 You make a valid point. It's hard to gauge every dynamic in polls. As long as there is some benefit for UT, it's a win.
-
Now at a fairly healthy 19%.
