[QGIS-Developer] QGIS Plugin site

Wed Feb 12 23:28:32 PST 2025

Hi Tim,

@Lova Andriarimalala <lova at kartoza.com> can you surface the metrics into

The plugins metrics page is accessible through
https://plugins-analytics.qgis.org/. I have also included it in the
plugins.qgis.org's navigation bar.

Best regards,

Lova Andriarimalala
