I found the blockweight per day here, interesting its maxing out at 4mb daily which is the max size allowed.

just an fyi if you didnt know. segwit actually did increase block size but now its called "blockweight" and its a stupid solution as it just removed the unlocking witness script into the witness block.
blockweight = transaction block (1mb) and up to (3mb) witness block.
segwith also allowed bacward compatability with P2PKH addresses (those starting with 1; addresses used before segwit soft fork)
I think this is interesting because although segwit adoption using the P2SH addressformat (starts with 3) is being used more which is more of a segwit wrapper (still reduces byte size but not as much as bech32), the adoption should be much higher since its been around. which is why you never do soft forks especially for someting so important to reduce bytes to save on fees.
I just opened up my atomic wallet since i have to use btc to buy something they dont accept bitcoin cash. Atomic doesnt seem to support P2SH they are still using those old addresses.
As for Bech32 addresses, have never seen in the wild. you get less bytes per tx. but thats all i really know about it, perhaps its required for LN.
if im wrong on any of this happy to be corrected especially in regards to how in interpret the address formats and what they mean.
