    Reporting is done by users who voluntarily upload their system specs via
    # hw-probe -all -upload

    So not skewed at all

      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)?

        Because a huge portion of the people willing to do this are already on Wayland, but I believe there exists an even larger percentage on X that are not submitting any data.

        And another commenter said:

        We’re just left to do armchair psychology about the type of people who would submit data to this site. So the numbers are effectively useless.

          What is the basis for that assumption?

          So because one cannot know which type of people submit data to the site it should be disregarded? That’s basically saying any poll or questionnaire with anonymous yet unique answers are invalid. That’s a pretty bad argument.
