I'd be more concerned with the fact that we're on the "Losers" section of the trending tech with a 7% decrease in the number of questions, which indicate that people either have no problems (not very likely) or are just giving up.

I also find it interesting that people are hating on Cordova, and not PhoneGap, Ionic, Taco or the other distributions. > > > Ryan J.
