Download statistics
Observations about FreeMind daily and monthly download statistics:
- The peak downloads were 350 000 per month, in May 2011.
- The downloads dwindled to about 50 000 per month in Jan 2020.
- The downloads since dwindled to about 1/10, 30 000 per month, e.g. Feb 2023.
- Possible explanation: absence of new releases fails to drive new downloads. Other FOSS competition drives the downloads down, e.g. XMind and Freeplane, but these two do not have hugely larger downloads than FreeMind. Needs a more careful look.
- OpenOffice daily download counts steadily surpass 50 000 per day, on the order of 50 times as many as FreeMind. OpenOffice is many times richer and fundamental product than FreeMind, so perhaps this is not so bad a relationship.
Total download per release as of Mar 2023:
- Release 1.0.1: over 5,800,000 times[1].
- Release 0.9.0: over 5,450,000 times[2].
- Release 0.8.1: over 4,880,000 times[3].
- Release 0.7.1: over 1,000,000 times[4].
