Tahoe Market share vs. Sequoia

[maflynn]

Interesting website I stumbled upon - telemetry of how each version of macOS has been adopted - https://telemetrydeck.com/survey/apple/macOS/versions/

Its an interactive chart, so to make it readable for my feable brain I deselected all of the versions other then Tahoe and we see that Tahoe jumped out to almost 40% initially, but then shrank to 28%, presumably from people rolling back the OS

Now compare that (as best we can) to Sequoia (second image), in November (the legend in the chart partially obscures it) Sequoia was at 40% and increased to 50% with the roll out of the 15.1 patch

Its an interesting chart, I recommend playing around

it's survey-based (& not uninteresting), but little to do with 'real-world' numbers. from the site:

"Our data set currently skews towards small and independent developers, who in turn tend to have more technically minded users"

Can’t make comparisons with the past because the software update notification’s have become more intrusive and there appears to be a deceptive attempt to make users upgrade to Tahoe. On one of my Macs I explicitly set it to install the latest Sequoia and not Tahoe but my prefs were all manipulated and changed to download updates automatically (which I never allow) and Tahoe was checked when I had unchecked it.
