Although for the "where are you from" question, similar to others who commented, it's not entirely true but it is how i see myself, so it is true enough to me.
I'm an immigrant but i think of myself as Canadian first. And i call my home Quebec even though I'm currently studying in another province for the time being.
I want to see Linux desktop usage above 6%. Elbows up 🇨🇦
I'm doing MY part! o7

As an immigrant to Canada, I wasn't sure how to answer the "where are you from?" question. I consider myself Canadian but when someone asks where I'm from I assume they've picked up on my accent and are asking where my accent is from. So I answered as though I had been asked IRL. I hope that doesn't skew the results.
I also wasn't sure how to answer, as a Canadian who lives abroad.
As an immigrant Canadian who now lives abroad, I also had a hard time answering that question.
In Toronto, the question "Where are you from?" typically means what's your country of origin. If you respond with "Canada" cause you've lived here for a long time, it's often followed up with "Oh yes, but where are you really from?" In vaccuum that all sounds a bit problematic but in TO more than half of the population is foreign-born so it's an acceptable request for multicultural exchange. 😅
In Toronto, the "Where are you from?" Question is also correctly responded to with your neighbourhood or nearest major intersection. E.g. Danforth and Pape.
So this was actually intentional, and @Dave@lemmy.nz and I discussed how we could word it in order to let people pick the option that made the most sense to them.
I think a lot of people are in a similar situation as you, and would be making a similar choice
Great, that means I got the answer right 😁
Not an immigrant. Born Canadian with a Scottish last name. I have no Scottish culture in my life, just Canadian culture. Where I'm from: Canada. What is my ethnicity: Scottish. I think.

-3 kids. I have had three abortions. Two conventional, one in the 32nd trimester.
Ah
We will do some data cleaning afterwards
Just so you know, when you click the speed test link, it opens it in the same page as the survey and you lose your progress on the survey.
Good to know, we just added some warnings about it. We're trying out FormBricks for the first time with this survey, and this is one of the issues we'll need to look into
edit: We've made the links unclickable in the meantime. The census is long, so I didn't want people to lose their progress near the end. The links are here:
In this context, I always open links in a new tab because it's quite a common issue with survey software.
Would it be okay to share this on !fediverse@lemmy.world? I know everyone is welcome, but this isn't "the threadiverse census" so I'm wondering if sharing it there would dilute the scope too much.
Definitely! I meant to cross post it and didn't get around to it
I'll share it on !fediverse@lemmy.world and maybe !lemmyapps@lemmy.world in a moment, feel free to share it wherever you want to :)
Nice, thank you.
Done 👍
The site seems broken for me, clicking next after the first question does nothing.
Do you have any privacy settings / extensions that might be causing it? I'm seeing results come in from other people
Just the defaults, same thing happens in firefox and chrome, though all three are webkit based.
