Ask HN: Where are you located?

13 points by bsvalley ↗ HN
We don't have access to HN analytics, so how can we find out where most of the viewers are located? Well, how about asking - which part of the world are you reading this from?

That's a bit pointless in this form, you should make a poll of sorts. You don't have enough karma to make an actual HN poll (is that even still a thing? I haven't seen one in a while) but you could use an external tool for that.

Gävle, Sweden.

But please, shouldn't there be some sort of graphical geographical poll thingy, where respondents just put their needle whenever they feel like. Such as where they're at. Yeah.

My file manager [1] was on the front page last week. 20,000 sessions:

42% Europe

41% Americas (32% US)

12% Asia

3% Oceania

1% Africa

32% US

7% UK

7% Germany

4% Canada

3% Spain

3% India

3% France

3% Australia

2% Russia

2% Netherlands

something is missing, this isn't close to 100%
2% Poland

2% Sweden

2% Italy

2% Japan

1% Brazil

1% Austria

1% Switzerland

1% Romania

1% China (!)

1% Ukraine

Obviously, percentages are rounded.

121 countries had less % than Ukraine (which had 0.85%).

Bristol UK, in the house!
