This is your once a month reminder to make sure your PC information is correct on your user profiles. A fresh batch of statistics is generated on the 1st of each month.

You need to be logged in to see when you last updated your PC info!

You can see the statistics any time on this page.

If you want your details to actually be included in the monthly survey, be sure to head here and tick the box labelled "Include your PC details in our Monthly User Statistics?" and hit the "Update" button at the bottom, it's opt-in and you can uncheck it at any time not to be included in future statistics gathering.

PC Info is automatically purged if it hasn't been updated, or if you don't click the link to remain in for 2 years. This way we prevent too much stale data and don't hold onto your data for longer than required. If this is still correct and it has been a long time since you updated, you can simply click here to continue to be included. If this isn't correct, click here to go to your User Control Panel to update it!

Quoting: liamdaweDone, took some research and some hair-pulling but I managed to get it to work.

Great, thanks! It shows a drop in the total number of users, when checking some trends. Is it because some users aren't updating profiles, or because some users stopped specifying some particular parameter in their profile?
The drop in the total number could be:
- Some removed their answer
- Some unticked the box to be in the survey
- Old data past two years

And of course a mixture of all three.

"Monitors" should rather be named "Number of monitors", because it can be confusing. I was on the trends page (hint Ubuntu :P) and I thought the monitors trends had broken label associations and we got their indexes/IDs instead of the names. Programmer issue, but we're still people. :P

Quoting: liamdaweWell, Awesome is just a Window Manager, so you're using KDE as your desktop?

Yeah, but Awesome chooses to not follow some of the more cruft-y EWMH specs (only one virtual workspace over all monitors, for example), so my desktop is differently compatible than normal KDE.

Still KDE and all the programs associated though? If you use KDE, you use KDE ;)

The survey isn't currently meant to dive into every single little detail about people's setups, more to get an overview.

Quoting: PatolaI wish it had more flexibility in the controllers part. Since we Linux users are not mainstream, it's quite useful to know when some other people have more unusual controllers, like HOTAS sets or steering wheels.
Suggestions? I am happy to make adjustments, but I can't act on vague stuff like that. What do you want changed/added?
Nothing too fancy, I think an extra field where you could enter a list of the devices you use would do. :)
I will think on this, that sounds like it would get pretty messy, especially to get some kind of chart out of it.

since we're requesting stats we'd like added, i think some storage media stats would be interesting(at least they would be to me): type(ssd, pcie nvme, hdd, floppy(ok, not really on the floppy :D)), amount(GB,TB,PB),RAID(0,1,5,10,:hardware HBA, mobo fakeraid, linux software raid, LVM).

then i could brag aboit the Areca 1231-ML 12 port raid hba i'm phasing out with m.2 pcie nvme sticks :D

I've adjusted that, I can see how it could be confusing. It's now named "Number of monitors" and I've also added a dash separator between the label and the amount so hopefully that makes it easier.
