Didn't see any mention of this little goodie, so enjoy:
In DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 632, 19 October 2015, in the News section
"Improving package searches", the editors dropped this tidbit:

Would be interesting to see the stats from the searches. This could be added

Unfortunately it only allows you to search by package, leaving you
with a lot of non-linux and inactive distros - and no ranking.
But it's a nice feature.

Yes, but biggest problem is that it misses some good non-systemd distros
like Gentoo and Manjaro-OpenRC because

I sure hope so, it and slackware are my current distros of choice ever
since Debian ceased to be, it's been fun.
However, i must point out that Gentoo does have systemd as an option
and this, IMHO

Description: Op
You might have noticed that distrowatch has recently introduced the
possibility to review and rate distros:

It is good to see that Devuan is doing quite well overall:

I was poking around distrowatch (I don't very often) and found a page
which ranks Linux distros according to user ratings.
Devuan is #2! Arch is #1 and Debian and the 'buntus (and other "popular

I chose the second option as it does need a bit more work WRT Network

What does it mean "little" and "lots" of work? Words like "little"and
"lots" are too subjective. Although DEVUAN may be a works in progress,
many like me have been using it as their production OS for a whole

I wouldn't be too much concerned about Internet polls. In particular,
a scientifically sound poll should ask a single question at a time,
and not mix four questions like in this case:
- Have you tried Devuan?
- If not, do you plan to try it in the future?
