I like langpop a lot, but is it showing C# correctly? On langpop, C# is shown as less popular than Ruby. Most of the other data sources that I have checked show Ruby as being only a fraction of the use of C#. C# is the dominant Microsoft language, and Microsoft still rules inside of large enterprises.
I do not work in large enterprises. In the universe that I inhabit, Ruby is popular and C# is unknown. I have always been curious that my own career seems so far out of step with what organizations like TIOBE show.
If it turns out that langpop is the most accurate of the data surveys out there, then it deserves credit for correctly showing the rise of Ruby.
