Hey! Welcome to the Unixporn 2025 survey.
Every now and then we put out a quick survey just to get a feel for who’s hanging around here and how the community is doing. This is your chance to tell us what the current userbase looks like and to drop some feedback if you feel like it. Or, you know, fill it in just to let us know you use Arch btw.
To fill in the form simply follow this link: https://forms.gle/aV8scng1UwqYJtcU9
BUT! Before answering our survey I think it is good to clarify some things:
- You can only fill this form out once (it helps us keep spam away), so take a moment to think before sending your answers as you won’t be able to edit them afterward.
- While we do ask you to sign in with your Google account, we do not see or colect your email, your name, or anything else tied to your Google profile. Some questions are totally optional because we don’t want to collect stuff you're not comfortable sharing. If something feels too personal or you just don’t know what to put, you can skip it entirely.
- The data will be plotted and shared with the rest of the community in about a month from now. If you end up sharing anything personal and want it removed later, just send us a modmail and we’ll take care of it.
If you have any questions, criticism or suggestions feel free to use this thread to discuss the survey! And again, thanks for taking part, you guys are what makes r/unixporn great in the first place!
Sincerely, the mod team <3
The choice of countries are a bit...interesting. No Nordic countries? Not even Finland?! :)
We simply picked roughly the 50 most populous countries, if you've been left out it was simply because your country isn't big enough and including every single one would make the form look silly. If you still want to be represented you can always pick the "other" option and fill it in!
Would love to fill this out but I don't have a Google account!
Unfortunately this requirement is needed so we can make sure the survey doesn't get vandalized. We're aware this may prevent some users from filling our form and will skew the data a bit, but if you have anything to tell us you can still use this thread to give us feedback anyway!
What's this DE? Teach me how to get similar rice 😭
You're looking at Calla, Made by the awesome u/Stardust-kyun! All the instructions are included in this repo.
Thank you very much.
i like the window decorations and the little bubbles behind the desktop icon text and the widgets in the taskbar.. looks so light and cloudy
I wonder how many of us OpenBSD users will respond?
just did the survey! kinda cool to see what distros everyone's using these days. i've been playing with i3 for like 3 weeks and already feel like part of the cult lol.
