Surprised that vim clocks in at only 6%.

It doesn’t count all the VStudio users with ViEmu installed :-)

Or any JetBrains IDE with the IdeaVim plugin.

For example, I use JetBrains CLion with IdeaVim plugin.

I’m wondering the percentage for C developers.

To invite potential respondents to complete the survey, we used Twitter ads, Facebook ads, Instagram, Quora, VK, and JetBrains’ own communication channels. We also posted links to some user groups and tech community channels, and we asked our respondents to share the link to the survey with their peers.

Probably not where you would look for vim & emacs users.

>>> We also used a set of criteria to identify and exclude suspicious responses: [...] Surveys from identical IP addresses, as well as surveys with responses that were overwhelmingly similar.

That one picked my attention.

All developers in a company are behind a single NAT IP. It's a pretty bad idea to deduplicate based on IP.

I'd hate to find out that my answers were ignored because another coworker also filled the survey. We probably all received the same survey email the same day.

Look for low ICQ numbers and you'll find them quick!

Where would you look for Vim and Emacs users?

/r/emacs, /r/vim, and HN of course. But definitely not through ads.

Hacker News would be a good place.

Thanks for the link, this is just what I was looking for.
