Your yearly reminder that Wordpress enjoys a >40% market share of all websites.

It looks like it is sitting at 42.7% now. It peaked in 2022 at 43.2%. So it did slip over the last 2 years.

jquery probably more than 50% then

@vane jQuery is at 94.5% of websites with known JS lib, which is 77.3% of all websites. Source: https://w3techs.com/technologies/...

Ofc JQ is useless these days and just a performance hog, but who would refactor the plugins to use vanilla JS?

I wonder how those stats are made because most companies use Wordpress as their landing page while the real service is a few clicks away

Yeah a lot of websites are only fully functional after you log in. How could their web crawler judge things correctly? Can it register and log in automatically? But some websites don't even allow automated account creation.

@daniel-wu true. probably does not measure the deep web

@joewilliams007 would you need to track people like Google to actually know?

@electrineer yea, don't like the google guy. or make your own web crawler
