How big is the community that uses mods and cc?

I've been playing with mods and cc since the Sims. And I really need mods for Sims 4, wouldn't be able to play the game without them. The bulk of my mobs being those that add character to my sims. and basically enhance their lives.

The mods have breathed so much more life into my game. It hurts when we get a new patch or EP, SP, GM, and things get broken. Waiting for them to be updated is the worst.
