1636012 - Remove or update probes expiring in Firefox 79: TYPES_OF_USER_CLICKS

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Performance: General, task)

Description

[telemetry-probes]

The following Firefox probes will expire in the next major Firefox nightly release: version 79 [1].

TYPES_OF_USER_CLICKS

What to do about this:

1. If one, some, or all of the metrics are no longer needed, please remove them from their definitions files (Histograms.json, Scalars.yaml, Events.yaml).
2. If one, some, or all of the metrics are still required, please submit a Data Collection Review [2] and patch to extend their expiry. There is a shorter form for data collection renewal [3].

If you have any problems, please ask for help on the #fx-metrics Slack channel or the #telemetry Matrix room at https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#telemetry:mozilla.org. We'll give you a hand.

Hmm, have we done anything with the metric (which was added in bug 1589742)?

Looks like currently in Nightly content process 91% of the clicks have js listeners and 9% are link clicks.
If looking both parent and content process, 27.7% are clicks in browser chrome, 6.5% are link clicks in content, 65.8% are js listener clicks in content.
