Getting back to WebView market share data

Hello everyone,

After the interesting discussion of defining WebViews (which will
continue soon) I wanted to bring back the idea of being more vocal about
the WebView market share. As the groups charter includes the goal "raise
awareness about the impact of WebViews for Web technologies in relevant
communities" I would like to play with ideas that do that with market
share data.

While researching for the WebView definition, I came across Doms blog
post [1] that announced this CG. He opened up with pointing out that the
market share of WebViews is often overlooked by using the Cloudflare
radar dashboard [2]. So there is public data available, it's only not
included in the quarterly report and from the data we got [3] some apps
that supposedly are using WebViews are missing.

Would you included these apps like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter,
LinkedIn etc. into the WebView category based on their user agent/client
hints?

What do you think of the idea of adding a little chart or widget to
caniwebview.com that shows the market share of WebViews?
