In T176181, users who enable "Automatically enable all new beta features" now have the 2017 wikitext editor beta feature enabled. The number of users of the feature as listed on the beta features page has not changed, which appears to only count explicit opt-ins for that one feature. Let's find out more.
Statistics to find out:
How many users now have the 2017 wikitext editor beta feature as a result of T176181?
- How many users had the beta feature before T176181 rolled out, e.g. on 2017-10-04?
- 26k unique global accounts (31k local accounts, with duplicates caused by people enabling it for themselves on a number of wikis); data
- How many users had the beta feature after T176181 rolled out, e.g. on 2017-10-06?
- 🤷🏽♂️ I don't think this is obviously findable, sadly.
How has the edit rate with the 2017 wikitext editor been?
- Daily edits with the 2017 wikitext editor, over the past few weeks
- We don't track this globally, but I can give you data for enwiki and dewiki (and with VE for comparison that the general edit rate didn't just spike):

- We can't track this, sadly. My rough estimate is ~50% of non-bot edits, but that's based mostly on experience and there's no hard data.
