I’m unsure what the question is there. 🙂 

I was just curious to know if most people just use the base IPS with the official apps and don't care about using third party apps/plugins.

With v5 I'm really expecting fewer "A new community release with some huge under-the-hook BC breaking changes is here, all my apps are now broken and need to be updated ASAP" scenarios.

That is indeed an advantage. And third party developers will also save some trouble because there is less risk of new IPS version breaking their apps.

If it's something that needed to be done, i guess we will all survive like it happened in the past with other major changes.

The third party developers are very important to us, but most customers choose to not use add-ons or modifications. Based on statistics we collect, the most popular plug-in on the marketplace has less than 250 current installations, and the most popular application has less than 600 installations.

But the percentage of clients that used the marketplace is very high, or the majority don't have a single plugin/app installed?

Wow... Things went to the wrong side. It will be too bad if Ips loses Adriano.

I have more installed, but i basically only use 2 plugins.

Will stick with IPS4, maybe until IPS version 6 🙃🤦‍♂️

One from Zayed, the External Link Rich Embed. I think a thing like this plugin should've come with the base suit, but it doesn't. Hope this one doesn't belong to the list of the 80% of plugins that will die because of framework limitations.

Thank you - that's several project dead in the water then.

And the other one is from Nathan, oembedServices Manager, so we can oembed services that do not come with IPS. Another one i think it should come with the base suit, but it doesn't come.

I only really need those 2 plugins, so i think i'm more or less safe. Let's see what the future brings.
