Maybe yes, maybe no. Most of the FOSS software I use* comes as compiled
executables, often with an install process. And there is a fair
difference logically between libraries and executables; the former are
more often distributed as source and the latter more often as compiled
(and I'm sure there are exceptions both ways). Without a strong survey,
it's probably impossibly to quantify.
*(On the machine I'm using right now- firefox, thunderbird, putty,
handbrake, openshell, greenshot, freefilesync, _vlc_, ImageMagick,
PSpad, etc etc; all installed from pre-compiled packages from that
project.)
on the machine i am using right now i type "dnf install whatever", works
fine for 15 years
