Released the results of my yearly (highly unscientific :D) Advent of Code survey, roughly 2300 folks answered questions this year about Language/IDE/OS usage, reasons for participating, and (new in 2025) how strongly the primary emotions pop up while puzzling.

You can also slice these "Emotion" charts across Language, IDE, and OS to compare subgroups. These slices are persisted in the URL so you can share your favorite "comparison" with others.

There's a corresponding Reddit thread if you like to check it out: https://www.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/comments/1plqm0v/2025_...

Hope you'll enjoy these stats!
