None of the above?
Username checks out?
Pinterest. They're like half of google results.
And I never understood how to use it. If I click on a Google result from Pinterest I'm always taken to something completely different.
Not with -pinterest
Or maybe google shouldn't include spam in its results.
If you use kagi you can just permanently block Pinterest. And any other site you want. Or rank their listings lower.

Think of it as giving them bad data.
I'm exclusively on Pinterest 100hours/week. (I forgot to close the tab with the image search for cool origami)

No one will like hearing this answer but they may already understand the issue of it being bad data and have a good reason not to care.
Here’s the thing. When “none” or “skip” is there, people gravitate toward it. You end up getting 75% of people saying “none” for every question, and then your entire survey is meaningless. I hate surveys too. Everyone hates them. All the more reason to just mash “skip” or “none.” Because fuck you and fuck your survey.
Meanwhile, what % of people don’t touch any of these social networks? Maybe we can’t say for sure, but it’s way less than 75%.
So you’re choosing between two possible sources of bad data, and choosing the one you know to be of lower magnitude.
Then provide an "other" option with a text box instead.
Make entering some text mandatory if you click it.
No one gravitates toward that.
Besides, a "none" option can just be discarded when you analyze the data.
If all your boxes are social media sites, you have no idea which ones are poisoned by bad data, and by how much.

Lemmy, Sharkey, and YouTube for me. I'm on Facebook, but less than an hour a week. A friend posts a weekly "how's everyone doing?" post and I usually comment on that.
Choose at least one option? I don't use any of those platforms. My only social media is Lemmy and Reddit.
I'm a middle aged guy, so I only use Snapchat. Because me and my friends have children and no free time so that's how we keep in touch and share our lives.
