https://forms.gle/HgPE9aayW2Gbfd4WA 5 very casual unscientific questions, all optional, on Google Forms, share the URL with and/or tag folks you think would be up for taking part, especially if you think they won’t have seen this! I’ll put the results here when I feel like it. :) Edit: I added a …

It’s a survey to see how many will fill out surveys if the subject is not offered up front!

Nosiness! Inspired partly by this thread though: https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/why-is-inat-male-dominated/6533

I am also curious about the demographics of the curators and how many users are employed in (or retired from or students in) the natural sciences. I feel very lucky to be employed in the field of my degree where I also get to use iNat at work.

Just thought it might be interesting for folks to know that there have been 129 respondents so far. :)

I’ve heard women are more likely to respond to surveys.

If you have any reliable sources for that I’m interested! :)
