npm downloads seem to exaggerate how many actual people are downloading packages rather than bots. A funny pattern that emerges in the above chart is that downloads drop sharply on weekends. I have seen packages that exhibit the opposite pattern (downloads spike on weekends). And this pattern is correlated with popularity, the most popular packages are downloaded largely by 9-5 industry coders, and mostly via continuous integration bots. |
