Edit: we might end up redoing the survey, please read this comment!!

First things first, thanks to everyone that took the survey!

So, one thing we were not aware of is that questionpro (the software we used to make the survey) only lets you have 300 responses to a survey before they close it. Obviously they would not tell you that before they sell you their 1200$ a year subscription. We reached that limit and can't access the data. Now they want us to email them to download this data, which I'm reluctant to do (but still might do) because of, you know, the whole communism thing. Also if we download the data we still need a way to visualise it.

So yeah, sorry about that. I'd used questionpro before for a ProleWiki survey and picked it exactly because they didn't seem to have a respondent limit.

I did save a screenshot of the analytics at the 301 mark, so we can still publish the results of the survey. However, I'm not sure there's any point in setting it up again for the few people that haven't taken it yet, considering they represent around 50 users or so.

This survey was mainly made for fun and out of curiosity, so I'm not sure it's worth trying to download the data, import it to another provider if we can (I was recommended framaforms), and hold the survey for the few people that didn't take it yet.

At the same time, I totally get it would suck for the people who haven't had a chance to take the survey yet to be locked out from it.

Regardless of any solution we find, we'll find a better provider for next year if we run this survey again.
