    It says 30,000 developers took the survey, how does that number compare to previous years? I'd imagine fewer people use the website these days and so a comparatively low response to the survey.

    I decided to check and their 2025 survey said over 49,000+ responses. 2024 said over 65,000 developers. 2023 said over 90,000 developers. 2022 said over 70,000 developer. 2021 said over 80,000 developers. 2020 said nearly 65,000 developers.

      Its a good thing(tm) that StackOverflow joined up with that AI company.

        I’d good until your favorite agent flagged your question as duplicated and ghosted you
