@djpeacher@fosstodon.org What might be missing here is the actual numbers this represents. 24% of 4600 is more than 100 people more than 24% of 4000. That shows continued growth in the number of people using HTMX.
Likewise, I draw a different conclusion regarding the "experience" issue. e.g If you add 100 new developers every year, that same number of people become a smaller percentage of the total. This could be a sign that people aren't _leaving_ Django - but becoming more experienced over time.

@djpeacher@fosstodon.org Or, in other words, I'd be more concerned if this weren't the case. (But yes, separating this into two questions would add a lot of value in that area.)

Ah, great point @KenWhitesell@mastodon.social regarding the HTMX numbers! Absolute vs relative comparison got me there. For experience, I 100% agree that this does show people are staying and becoming more experienced (which is great!). I was having a hard time proving to myself that new people are coming to Django.
