Nemo would this, our next-up priority for Wikistats
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T249758>, help? Basically, it would let
you filter on two different dimensions, so you can look at just user
desktop or spider mobile, etc.
Maybe. I don't have a pressing need for this breakdown, I'm just trying
to make sure I understand.
More "interesting" might be the question of what should the default be
on the main page <https://stats.wikimedia.org/#/it.wikisource.org> but
that's more a "political" decision or a matter of tradition. I don't
consider the current choice particularly misleading because it takes
only two clicks to find out that the totals include various kinds of
pageviews.

Alright. I just naively assumed that most bots would be classified as
"desktop", given there's practically never a good reason to crawl the
mobile domain, so I was surprised by the numbers. Either there's a lot
of "bot" activity on the mobile domain, or there's very little "user"
activity on desktop.
Already with the breakdown available, one can tell that it's better to
be very careful about using such pageviews numbers about this project.
I'm probably going to only mention unique devices in public, or the
order of magnitude of the pageviews without further specifications.
