Yeah. I've considered adding a popularity attribute of some sort to use in the filters. E.g., "mainstream," "challenger," and "fringe." But to date, I've not put a whole lot of thought into how exactly I could objectively measure popularity. Perhaps Google search hits for "[name] web application framework."


That would be biased towards the frameworks named as some common word (like "go") being mistakenly marked as more popular than they are.


Indeed. I'm not really sold on the idea, and addressing this is not a priority.

I just wanted to point out that I'm aware that it's a little funny to see fringe frameworks compared head-to-head with mainstreamers. But the charts are but one data point to consider in evaluating options. :)
