That's a popularity metric, not a quality metric. Conflating the two is disingenuous at best.

Turns out quality software is also popular. Imagine that!

Plenty of quality software is unpopular, and plenty of popular software is shit. I'm confident you know this. What is driving this series of pointless nonsense posts?
