From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I got average monthly ratings for games on Wine AppDB, and seems like something happened in 2016. (lemmy.world)

I took each rating for games on Wine Application Database, mapped them to numbers (Garbage -> 1, Bronze -> 2, Silver -> 3, Gold -> 4, Platinum -> 5) and plotted a monthly average.

The left axis is total number of ratings of each type (Garbage, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) in a given month (not per app). For example for month 2016-07 there were

  "Garbage" => 22
  "Bronze" => 14
  "Silver" => 13
  "Gold" => 55
  "Platinum" => 61

On right side is the average rating. So if I assign values to each rating:

  "Garbage" => 1
  "Bronze" => 2
  "Silver" => 3
  "Gold" => 4
  "Platinum" => 5

I can get an average rating, which will be between 1 to 5.

((22*1) + (14*2) + (13*3) + (55*4) + (61*5)) / (22 + 14 + 13 + 55 + 61)
 ~=  3.721
