Well, Git, for some UNGODLY REASON, doesn't track downloads... so I like to think I'm getting thousands more downloads there than from spacedock.

REALLY??... Wow... I did not know that... :(

I'm probably the only person in the world who cant access ANY Github domain thru my router, so i admit I rarely grab anything from Git... :(

https://api.github.com/repos/S-C-A-N/SCANsat/releases

Just replace the bit after repos/ with your github account and the specific repo name.

Scroll down about 30 lines to "download_count": :confused:

Why they couldn't just put that number in the releases page is beyond me.

And to answer the question, whichever site CKAN points to will get the most downloads by far. SCANsat gets as many downloads in a day from Space Dock as it does from several weeks on GitHub or Curse.

Seriously it's the only thing I can see in that list that's relevant. Well, for anyone interested, here's BDB:

So it looks like Spacedock's (meager) downloads are the largest concentration by far... :P

For the mod hosting site, I think it depend of the ckan metadata :wink:

Yup... Not only did I not know Git doesnt track downloads (easily), as a non-CKAN user, i forgot to account for that, as well... :P
