If previously there we 1’000 uninstalls per day, not there are 1’500. Relative numbers like that are useless.

No, your example is only a 50% increase. A 150% increase of 1000 is 2500.

    My comment wasn’t about the article, it was about the other commenter’s bad math. But the article does actually say it increased by 150%.

    Yup, my comment wasn’t about your good math, it was about my low expectations of the source :)

If they're "up 150%" then it's now 2500.
