2026 Q4*: quarter to date. Read share and net together: a tool can be discussed more because it is used more, not because it is liked less.

By model, by quarter

Posts naming the model in their own words, as a share of that quarter’s posts naming any model of the same family (so GPT-4o fading and GPT-5 arriving shows as a hand-over, not as noise). A net appears only from 5 posts whose main subject is that family.
