    I mentioned this in passing in my other article today, but did you know there's a public list of how many generations Civitai has a day on each base model?

    Its part of the Creator Studio, and you can see it here. If you want to access it on your own, open the user menu by clicking your avatar and buzz count in the top right corner, then go to Creator Studio under "Creator Tools", then go to "Base Models" under the Analytics header. However you get there, once you're there you can click a base model to include or hide it from the list, and hover over a day to see the exact gens this day.

    Observations

    Illustrious is, by far, the most popular model for generation at ~1.7 million generations a day. The next most popular is Pony at only ~0.37 million a day. Below that are Krea 2, Anima, and SDXL at ~0.15 mil a day. Despite being the generator's default, ZIT is only 13000-26000 a day. Daily challenge does not seem to be a significant part of SDXL's usage, as it seems to have no obvious changes on days where the challenge doesn't support SDXL.

    Edit: You can also check global Downloads by base model. These actually differ a lot. While Illustrious still leads at ~0.25 mil resources downloaded a day, Pony rarely breaks 50,000 DLs. Anima and Krea have a respectable ~0.16 mil a day, indicating those two are significantly more popular for local generators than the onsite generator.
