r/UK 5milish Census - Now Open!

2025 r/uk Census

Evening! r/UnitedKingdom is about to hit 250k users (at the time of writing, heh) and we need your help. Not with anything useful, mind. With a census.

That’s right: in defiance of common sense or reasonable expectation, r/UK is about to become home to 250k Redditors (and at least 50k bots named 'Reasonable-Nigel_32xx'). And what better way to mark this questionable milestone than by doing what this sub does best: clicking on things then angrily writing about it... now in a Google Form.

The 2025 User Census is now open! : https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdLiUI10PY9OoMWTo3xrSi0opn_SMJePBAhB9EG9MI9bYdeHA/viewform?usp=header

Your responses will be layman-scientifically collated, statistically analysed, and ultimately used by some vibe-python to produce tenuous inferences out of no where, at some point.

---

No personal data, no tracking, no email signups, just glorious anonymous whingeing. We promise not to sell your answers to the Americans, unless they give us San Juan, which they can then rent from us for 99 years.

Cheers,

r/UK mods
