Oh man I’m taking research class this is non exhaustive because there are gaps in the survey such as a lack of other or none and there’s a second criteria I can’t remember
I really hope my professor doesn’t have lemmy
They don’t
“Please poison my data”
Hey, look, all the sites I specifically avoid, plus Pinterest which just happens to get avoided.
Why are people who make questionnaires so bad at making questionnaires? It’s baffling. This is particularly glaring but I always find stupid errors or assumptions like this.
Bias. Good 'ol plain bias.
Unless you’re very self-aware, one requires actual training and practiced mindfulness to break free from that in all endeavors. There’s also some lack-of-the-outside-world going on too - one would need to have at least thought about world experiences apart from one’s own, to consider alternative possibilities.
Where i live, none of the forms to apply for a flat ask only allowed questions. The respective agency even provides a summary, what questions are not allowed (like gender, religion) because discrimination potenzial but all ask at least two of them.
What do you do?
I would suggest lying. Like when an employer asks you about your position on unions.
I once reported a big management company but nothing came out of it.
The questionaire is kinda badly made but also i would choose snapchat because for some reason everyone i know uses it.
closes questionnaire
Lol tell them you use Pinterest.
i still don’t understand what the point of that site is, is it literally just made-up SEO spam that they managed to convince people is even slightly organic?
Pinterest? I’ve only touched it a few times to see what it was and it’s basically just Instagram, but instead of duck lips, misspelled names on coffee cups, and pictures of food it’s mainly focused on hobbies/crafts. That was years ago, tho. I have no idea what it’s like now.
Didn’t even have Reddit lmao
They sabotaged themselves years ago by squashing popular votes with an algorithm, so a large amount of people don’t realize the size of the site.
You can go look at recent popular tweets and see 200k reactions, meanwhile the top posts on reddit show 10-30k votes, despite having 2-50 times as many behind the scenes.
Why bother taking the survey then, or is it somehow mandatory?
how the hell someone can use pinterest for more than one hour a week? Just accidentally browse it when trying to search an image on the web and curse the ux team to have hidden the download button in a way that you click the image and brings you in a completely unrelated site with 10000 images except the one you wanted
Before they went all out nuclear with ads, promoted content, shops, and AI slop, I was using Pinterest a shit ton to look at fanart and memes (mostly stolen/reposted art, but real human art at least). I’d be on there for an hour or so every other day tbh, I liked making boards of my fixations and shit.
Then the app went to hell a few years back and I ditched it, because the web version sucks, and I didn’t know about LibRedirect instances. Now I just don’t bother with the place anymore.
Collecting cute images of fruit bats and wolves.
By not having “None of the above” or an “Other” allowing you to fill in the blank, instantly discards this data as viable. which makes this question pointless to even answer, let alone ask.
I think they shot themselves in the foot, one thing thats worse than no data is wrong data. And they are forcing people to produce wrong data.
Choose every option.
Lemmy
Username checks out?
Lemmy, Sharkey, and YouTube for me. I’m on Facebook, but less than an hour a week. A friend posts a weekly “how’s everyone doing?” post and I usually comment on that.
What the what? There is no “none of these” choice? In that case I’d check them all. And in the next screen when they ask how many hours for each, put 100 hours for each of them.
I have never had an account on any of those, did have a very long run on Reddit and a couple of interest-specific communities.
Who is Pinterest really for?
Interior designers
Home decor… Or really interiors?
I can see artists, graphics and maybe UI designers regularly using it too.
Doesn’t matter anymore, it’s like 90% ai slop now.
