Because Geany does not install spyware to see where it is used, we really
don't know.  :)

Various people make various guesses based on their personal experience, but
really the people who know are only the users themselves.

I was thinking of asking on the users ML, after we agreed the questions
here first.  But do we want to?

Are we looking for "market share"?  Or are we interested in making the best
software that suits the contributors, and if its useful to others fine?

Thats a pretty deep and fundamental question about the project, what do
those who are interested enough to monitor the dev list think?

Cheers
