- yjftsjthsd-h 1y agoNothing solid. It would be entertaining if it were the opposite. But unless we have a really good reason to think we know which way it leans, the unknown unknown means I wouldn't want to trust the numbers.
- jasonjayr 1y agoOn a distro with wayland as the default, users are probably defaulting to allowing telemetry as well. (maybe? Just a guess ...)
- jchw 1y agoKDE telemetry is strictly opt-in, it is something that you are prompted for during the first setup wizard.
- alex-moon 1y agoThe reason Wayland users might be more likely to opt into telemetry is because they see Wayland as "developing" and therefore needing that user data for development purposes. I have no idea what the incidence would actually be, but there is certainly a potential selection bias in there.
