This week-end I thought about another elements that could partly explain this low 20% figure. The counter we have on /install/download counts the number of times the "Download" button is clicke, which might be very different from the number of times someone actually finishes downloading Tails. Especially when downloading something big like Tails, downloads might be interrupted and restarted, people might realize it's that big only after starting the download, etc. The counter on this button also introduced a tiny glitch: clicking on the button now opens a new blank tab and then closes it immediately to start the download. See 19a0c6cca1. I don't know how bad the impact of this glitch is but I'm pretty sure it has some. -- sajolida _______________________________________________ Tails-dev mailing list [email protected] https://www.autistici.org/mailman/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to [email protected].
