Demographics issues & ideas

[LeaVerou]

Recording these issues here for posterity, as @SachaG does not want to make any demographics questions changes right now:

Issues

• https://github.com/Devographics/surveys/issues/213#issuecomment-1728614998
• Some participants need to communicate their intent to keep certain demographics private, which they see as distinct to skipping the question, see https://github.com/Devographics/surveys/discussions/214
• It's unclear whether income is pre-tax or take home pay, so participants currently assume at random, likely affected by cultural conventions.
• Unclear what "🚫 Not applicable" is under Income. No income? But then the first bracket should not start from $0 (perhaps "less than $10k" which is also symmetrical with the last option).
• Education should use checkboxes, not radios. Some people have degrees in both related and unrelated fields. See https://github.com/Devographics/surveys/issues/218

Ideas

• Once education uses checkboxes, we could break them down even further, e.g. by type of degree (BSc, Master's, MBA, Doctorate etc)
