That's a very personal story though, since she also writes that users are up 30%. Before I remembered that I was going to make a similar anecdotal point that I thought a lot of the market uses Klipper (not Marlin) these days and that there are other options more popular with Klipper firmware. But if Octoprint usage isn't declining, then anecdata about usage is besides the point.
