If the comparison was broken down into usage domains (such as 
physics) then it could be quite interesting. Which languages are 
popular in different field and why?


Would interesting to know something about that.

But when all usage domains are included, and only one public 
source repository is taken into account, then it doesn't really 
say much.

Yes, that was confusing too. But it makes no sense to plot 
ranking on a linear scale, they should plot actual numbers. The 
plot they provide says nothing meaningful about the relative 
position of the various languages IMO.


Unfortunately for "D", it is also a language that is often 
misclassified in these shallow analyses. For instance the ".d" 
file extension is used for other things than dlang etc.


And does it actually make any sense to compare languages like 
Python and C++? Completely different domains.

It is correct. I assume you looked at the first Red Chart. That 
is a very, very old one. The article even mentioned that this.


You need to look down for the newer from 2017 and Go has clearly 
plenty more git projects.


They are comparing the old, newer and newest ( in that order ).

It looks like D almost never moved on those rankings.

As in, plotting ranks does not make much sense... If they plotted 
actual number of projects then it would be useful.
