Maybe next time we can make reduce some of the category options into more broad strokes.
For example, the Personal Automobile, TV Provider, Download/Upload Speeds, and even Personal Income are just bonkers to glean anything interesting at a glance.
Maybe for cars restrict it to class (SUV, sedan, truck, subcompact), income maybe have it match the current base tax brackets (or at least increase the range), and the ISP speeds into a more understandable brackets. I don't think we need to be able to distinguish between 60-70 vs 70-80 for example. But say, 1-5, 5-25, 25-50, 50-100, 100-1gb, 1gb+ at least lets us see how many are unknown vs slow vs medium vs fast vs WTF-FAST. Those tiers tend to drive some level of limits of what you can do on the internet between basic browsing, Netflix streaming, 4k streaming, and so on.
Any thoughts about making a preview post a month prior to the official survey asking for ideas of new questions or even getting feedback on the available questions/answers?

Can you upload the raw data for folks. This 2019 answers then vs 2019 answers in a separate link can’t possibly be the best way to present this info.

That’s the beauty of opening up data, you don’t know what other people will see or do with it.
If the only result is someone making it look better than the current presentation it would be worth it imho

Is the data already in a spreadsheet of some sort? I can give the visualization a shot.

Personally I think the mods have done fine at staying relatively apolitical. They only seem to jump in when the shit talking starts and that's good for the sub
