CryptPad: end-to-end encrypted collaboration suite

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.

live results

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.

    I dunno, I don’t wanna take part in any survey, it feels wrong to me. But filled it halfway, just to see my own thoughts on linux. BTW you shouldve added " for fun" as a option to the question “why’d you use linux”, thats the first thing that came to my mind

    There are some issues with some questions: empty ones (variant 1, variant 2, variant 3 etc) and toggles where radio buttons would be more appropriate

    Cryptpad still doesn’t support rclone file transfer or at least WebDAV? Was waiting for this for ages…

    So aside for a few wording and technical issues, something stuck out to me. Using “special” to refer to neurodivergence is a bit problematic and potentially dogwhistley because of the historical contexts it’s been used in to dismiss and look down on people. And even if it wasn’t, it’s a bit ambiguous; can someone who feels that they are in touch with their “spiritual side” consider themselves to have a “special brain”?

    If you’re wondering about neurodivergence, probably better to just ask “Are you neurodivergent?” rather than using euphemisms.

      I am neurodivergent myself.

      The word is complicated but for sure, I may rephrase that. Not sure if this will mess up the results though, it may create a second question out of it.

      I think special is a positive word.

    Some of the questions about distros don’t take into account those of us who have been using Linux since the mid-90s. Your scope here seems to be directed at the last decade or so.

    Some questions I wish I could say because it’s open source or I believe in open source projects

    Filled out the survey, hope some other people do too. Would be interesting to see how people answered.

    Why the fuck does a survey need a loading screen with a progress bar?

    Holy shit, people, some HTML with input fields and a submit button does not need to be this over engineered!

    So there are 43+ NixOS users and noone switched away for another OS?

    Woot!

    I keep pondering switching back to Debbie and every time I get in a fight with … well everything I try to install … And I look at my configuration.nix and sunk cost fallacy sits in.

    I don’t really need Splashtop, NinjaRMM, Parsec Server right?
