To get an idea of this community, and to try the cool CryptPad Survey feature, I created a pretty big Linux usage survey!

The data is anonymized and the content encrypted on the server. I plan on publishing the results.

Have fun!

It works on hardened Firefox on a phone, but the experience is better on a PC.

Notes

  1. I am very sorry but the question “it is okay that my above message gets published” cannot reasonably be respected, as the text is just dumped into a single block
  2. Lag caused some empty questions to appear, removed
  3. A question about disk encryption and “why do you use other OS” got mixed up
  4. i changed the wording of some questions or added more options, so there may be duplicate old answers or too little new ones. You can edit your submission and update your answers.

    why did you start using linux

    because it was my only option for newer software, my pc is too old for newer windows (also because of it having no internet so all my browsing was mobile)

    does your hardware meet win11 requirements

    nope

    do you use an immutable distro

    yes on mobile (android); nope on pc (puppylinux isnt immutable, it even autologins you as root at boot)

    do you use propietary software

    dude i literally use windows and msdos its pretty clear i do (even if lately my daily driver is linux and im starting to go more and more into the open stuff)
