In fact the results show that almost everyone use the GUI (~7000 on ~7300) 
and among them some also use the TUI (~2000).

Amusingly the first comment on Reddit says almost the opposite: "I'm 
surprised [...] There are almost twice as many default keybinding users 
are Evil users.  I feel like I read about so many people using Evil 
keybindings that I imagined it would be a lot more." ;-)

I'm not sure how to interpret this, Magit is a "favorite package" for 
~2500 respondents, but ~5000 respondents use it.  Does that mean that half 
of its users do not like it?
