Stackoverflow 2026 Developer Survey

It says 30,000 developers took the survey, how does that number compare to previous years? I'd imagine fewer people use the website these days and so a comparatively low response to the survey.

I decided to check and their 2025 survey said over 49,000+ responses. 2024 said over 65,000 developers. 2023 said over 90,000 developers. 2022 said over 70,000 developer. 2021 said over 80,000 developers. 2020 said nearly 65,000 developers.
