We’ve spent a lot of time at blog posts / research, and other projects, as well as Squiggle Hub. (Though in the last year especially, we’ve focused on Squiggle)
Regarding users, I’d agree it’s not as many as I would have liked, but think we are having some. If you look through the Squiggle Tag, you’ll see several EA groups who have used Squiggle.
We’ve been working with a few EA organizations on Squiggle setups that are mostly private.
Of course! In general I’m happy for people to make quick best-guess evaluations openly—in part, that helps others here correct things when there might be some obvious mistakes. :)
Quick notes on your QURI section:
“after four years they don’t seem to have a lot of users” → I think it’s more fair to say this has been about 2 years. If you look at the commit history you can see that there was very little development for the first two years of that time.

I think for-profits have their space, but I also think that nonprofits and open-source/open organizations have a lot of benefits.
Thank you for the context! Useful example of why it’s not trivial to evaluate projects without looking into the details
