Hi all!

TL;DR: If you’re reading this, please fill in the 2026 Lemmy.nz Census survey.

For the last two years we have done a census to get an idea about the people using Lemmy - both who they are and how they use Lemmy. You can see the results from 2024 and 2025.

This year we have relegated some questions to being asked every two years, and are back to hopefully 5 mins or less to complete it.

None of the questions are mandatory, so just answer what you are comfortable answering. I expect to leave this open for a while and will post some reminders to make sure we get as many responses as possible. I’ll do a results post once the results are in and I have had a chance to analyse them. I'm excited about this year, it's the third year so we might be able to graph some trends!

Let me know if you have any questions.
