Yes, I think that could be useful data that to help with future decision-
making.
Metrics are always interesting, but what are we trying to do here?
Are we trying to present a showcase for KDE upstream apps or are we wanting
to include only
apps that are viewed as popular. As least for me this has always been a
confusing point. For
example, I don't use kmail, kontacts, etc. I use Google web apps for
that. However, I consider kmail, kontacts,
etc. core kde applications and believe that should be defaults in the
Fedora KDE spin. Why, because I was
under the impression that the KDE SIG was wanting to promote KDE apps.
Under this logic, I would believe
the upcoming Falkon should be the default KDE browser, since that is what
upstream is doing.
I personally use many applications that aren't default... for example
copyq.... however, since the kde standard is
klipper I would never suggest that copyq should replace klipper as
default. If someone wants to use copyq it is quite easy to
install and use.
