This isn't TOO surprising to me.  There's been a lot of confusion lately about different surveys by several different parties.  It seems likely that several hundred people took some other survey, and thought it was last year's version of this one.  Also, people have extremely bad memories of what they did last year.  Some hundreds more probably remember seeing last year's survey and being interested, but they've forgotten that they never took it.

This is interesting, but I’m thoroughly confused. Over 2500 people said they took last year’s survey, but it only had roughly 1,300 respondants?

Hello! It took a little longer than I expected, but I am nearly ready to announce the 2018 state of Haskell survey results. Some community members have expressed interest in seeing the announcement post before it's published. If you are one of those people, you can see the results here: https://github.com/tfausak/tfausak.github.io/blob/7e4937e284a3068add9e9af6b585c8d0215ff360/_posts/2018-11-16-2018-state-of-haskell-survey-results.markdown

If you would like to suggest changes to the announcement post, please respond to this email, send me an email directly, or reply to this pull request on GitHub: https://github.com/tfausak/tfausak.github.io/pull/148

I plan on publishing the results tomorrow. Once the results are published, the post is by no means set in stone. I will happily accept suggestions from anyone at any time.

Thank you!
