LineageOS Statistics

PSA: LineageOS has some unofficial builds which works on earlier gen Amazon devices. I turned an Echo Show from an annoying ad machine into the device a Chumby always could have been.

Wow LineageOS really is a bazaar, and not a cathedral.

* 74% of installs are unofficial builds, not ones released by LineageOS.

* 2/3 of US installs are on non-phones (waydroid, nintendo switch, rpi, etc)

* Most of the installs on actual phones are in China, Brazil and Vietnam

* Less than 21% of installs are on versions that receive security updates, and less than 9% of installs are on the latest version (mostly because device's binary blobs don't support newer android versions?)

		>> 74% of installs are unofficial builds, not ones released by LineageOS. One of the first versions of LineageOS I used was Evolution X on my Moms old OnePlus phone since it wasn't supported by the "official" Lineage version. Great track record of almost daily updates, and the customization you could do with it was phenomenal. The funny thing was I was running Ubuntu Touch on it before and it was super sluggish (totally not expecting that tbh) so switched to Evolution and suddenly the same phone was really snappy and the battery lasted for almost two days. But yeah, I'm not surprised many installs are just branched versions of the original since many of them you can run on phones that aren't supported by the official version.

		i'm not sure all those "installs on actual phones" in china are real - 107k installs all on the same device, vs ~30k installs on the next most popular device. and 150k devices on an unknown carrier. is the Xiaomi Mi 8 really that popular for lineageOS, or is this some measurement artifact or common emulation setup?

		It’s quite hard to be official.

Wow, that's not the distribution I expected; waydroid beats any other version... Though I guess that's not apples-apples since it aggregates any physical device running waydroid... And also I didn't expect unofficial builds to be so popular.

Wonder how much of those Waydroid installs are from scam farms. I can imagine some legit uses, but not this amount.

That's really depressing.
