Those are interesting stats. Thanks for sharing the cumulation.
I see JOSM is used as massively as iD.

There are regularly updated statistics on editor usage avaliable here osm.wiki/Editor_usage_stats
It seems as if you are actually using changeset counts and not edits as you claim, this is not only extremely mislieading and distorts actual use of the various apps, changeset counts are simply not a good metric for anything.

It’d be interesting to link to the sites / editors behind these. I’m surprised to see a local site for one purpose “Refill Südtirol” so high up the list, for example.

@SomeoneElse I was actually prompted to have a quick look at the empty changeset numbers, and they have doubled from the usual ~5’000/month since August and the “Refill Südtirol” app is the major culprit (for the increase, the rest are the usual suspects JOSM, maps.me and id).
Generating a list of user ids as I write.

@SomeoneElse see for example osm.org/user/danielbir with > 6000 empty changesets.

And this is the app https://www.refill.bz.it/?mz=9&mc=46.640008243515915,11.351623535156252 looks harmless, probably just buggy.

Thanks - we (the DWG) occasionally get complaints about people trying to “game” editing statistics (by e.g. editing the same thing over and over again) but I don’t remember any about empty changesets.
