Is it checked or unchecked ?<br /><br />On one hand, most users rarely or never look inside the options page of a program. On the other hand, GreaseMonkey users are a bit more advanced (I doubt my mom will ever use GreaseMonkey), so who knows...SoboLANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17428301211097915161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11645460.post-54596680390237958322012-12-28T09:17:50.466-08:002012-12-28T09:17:50.466-08:00Great data.

While 20k of users is just 1%, that's still a lot.<br /><br />It would be interesting if this 1% are Firefox power users; detect Firefox online time.<br /><br />Besides a post about this, it would be handy to make a special page for this. You won't post any specific data, only statics that are up-to-date.jeronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09543420696437753403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11645460.post-13911472130197686172012-12-14T06:34:55.770-08:002012-12-14T06:34:55.770-08:00> Interesting, so only 1% of users trust enough...> Interesting, so only 1% of users trust enough to report<br /><br />Not really. The feature was _very_ intentionally built to do nothing unless you opted in. You actually don't even get a lot of chance to: one info bar that doesn't stay open very long. More nags to opt in may be added at some point, but still over 20k users is a decent sample size.<br /><br />> and these are clearly not power users, since the vast majority have less than 7 scripts installed.

"Power users" are probably well represented on the mailing lists; it's regular users that we had less insight into.arantiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14641102142645956202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11645460.post-68024411486185678112012-12-12T22:50:59.813-08:002012-12-12T22:50:59.813-08:00Interesting, so only 1% of users trust enough to r...Interesting, so only 1% of users trust enough to report, and these are clearly not power users, since the vast majority have less than 7 scripts installed. (And ~55% have zero or 1 script!)<br /><br />The power users I know (8 in my work group alone) all have dozens of scripts, and they all use @require. If they are still on pure GM, they now use @grant on every script too. But most of us have migrated to Scriptish or to internal forks of GM.Cicerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17321209245337421761noreply@blogger.com
