Eh, I feel like the sampling is clearly biased toward those who would install a game engine through a service that auto-updates it. (Novices and hobbyists.)

And - thats exactly what that means...? An uptake in GODOT usage would mean novices and newbies are trying it out. Every new user is a newbie.

Sure but it doesn't really reflect the studios switching to Godot. I think they are likely switching to unreal.
