Interested to see how this compares with engagement in Reddit. I bet even more people are lurkers here. Survey design suggestions:
-allow me to choose two options for question one
-allow multiple answers for how do you use hn and make each answer a single action, not multiple.
-add a "zero" answer for how often I submit links
- tgb 10y agoAnd change the wording: "more than once a week" I think was meant to be "less frequently than once a week". That whole question is pretty confusing.
- pvsukale3 10y agoremoved that question. As most of the replies were "there is no specific pattern". and question was confusing
- pvsukale3 10y agook.
- tedmiston 10y agoYeah, this is a critical flaw in the design. I'm sure many of us use HN on multiple platforms.
- pvsukale3 10y agoedited the form.
- cookiecaper 10y agoIf I can piggyback. "Other" responses should be trimmed from less-than/greater-than questions. This is pretty binary (unless you've been on HN for EXACTLY one year, but then you should just pick which category you want to be in) and allowing "other" just leaves a group that's undefinable; might as well call it "prefer not to answer".
- AstroJetson 10y agoI'd like to suggest - adding to the timeframes I've been here 4 years and know there are people here much longer - breakdown of how much people read show, comments, new, etc. I do front page 2 to 3 times a day but only do show, comments about once a week. New is only when I have some extra time to burn off, so about two times a week (and mostly on the weekends). - Breakdown on commenting. I try not to comment unless I'm going to add value to the comments. But if I have a comment when I ask a question I make more of an effort to get back to get the answer. - Add a question about how often do you go back to old threads you were interested in. - Add a question about how much you use search. A few times a month I search on things that interest me (Lua, Robots, Rockets, Raspberry Pi, etc) to see if there was something I missed. Interested to see what the results are
- pvsukale3 10y agook . there are already 2000+ submissions.I think changing the form now will pollute the data.
