I can assure you this is NOT run by Xojo
It IS a facsimile of the one they just sent out a few days ago
I filled it out!
It is actually nice to see what a Xojo survey looks like. Beyond the āone-questionā survey āWould you recommand Xojo?ā, Iāve never received one. Not that I would have much positive to say (hence feeding the marketing machine), but still.
!!! not by xojo inc ??? somebody hacked the survey ? why?
who made that one?
No need to āhackā anything. If you can read & type its easy to make one that has similar questions
Why ? Because results can be 100% shared
No filtering
And its completely anonymous
No emails
No tracking links
What does it matter ?
because you did ? 
i donāt find it in twitter
Well, if you fill out the survey from Xojo Inc. and they analyze the results, they will act on it.
Change priorities for some cases, have an engineer look on issues and provide help.
If you donāt use this to voice your problems, it may not lead to improvements.
And Iāll ask Dana for results. Maybe a blog post could summarize it.
I didnāt receive the survey, nothing in spam folder and also didnāt receive it on another account I used a long time ago for testing something. Where did the survey originate, maybe I can check my mail server logs to see if it was even attempted.
if you check in twitter for the #xojo tag its in there
latest tweets in that hashtag I think
The Xojo one would have come from Dana at xojo dot com
Hmmm, I definitely get those emails as I got the 2021R2 email on the 22nd, interesting.
PLEASE STOP CALLING THEM ENGINEERS unless they are registered prof engineers in the state of texas or their respective home state (Not sure which one applies since Xojo is based in Tx but the developers are in other states)
This has ACTUAL legal ramifications for them and their staff
Iāll quote the relevant statutes if youd like
It is very good that they do this survey, but it should stay inside and hopefully be acted upon. One can predict beforehand this summary blog post would not reflect the full reality and would be some kind of ad. Perfectly understandable but it doesnāt help anyone. The results of the survey should be reflected in the next releases they make.
Well, if they go through the results, which may take weeks to read all comments, they may change priorities. But we from outside have no idea whether something they do has been on the plan for a long time or just got there changed because a couple of people complained about it.
Christianā¦ I wish I (and others) shared you overwhelming optimismā¦ Because I feel (and Iām supported by history here)ā¦ that these surveys (either the offical Xojo one, or even the combination of both of these) will do little (if anything) to change the interia (or lack thereof ). These are published with the sole intent to give the illusion that Xojo in fact cares what itās customers thinkā¦ and again, history supports the opinion that they do not.

Iām with you Dave. These are no different than placement ads. Wonder if they are even targeted, where some customers get different questions just to make them feel better. - Hey thereās an idea G will jump to with his savyness for marketing
