    Do you have a better way of measuring it?
    In what direction would voluntary self-reporting of all system specs skew the display server statistic (and why)?

      No better way of measuring doesn’t mean this is a good way of measuring.

            Well do you want useful stats or not /s

            But seriously, a lot of opt-in (that never get opted in to) data is insanely useful for developers, but it has such a bad stigma that we never get anywhere close to the amount of usefulness a larger dataset could provide.

          A method that attempts to collect data from a randomized or representative population rather than relying on self-report.
