"who may be or probably", see above to understand the intended
meaning.

It is a survey that targeted intentionally or not intentionally just a
subset of Emacs users using Reddit and few other popular websites.

Those who speak about Emacs on reddit in my opinion are minimally
slightly advanced users, as they discuss about Emacs.

I was using Emacs for years without discussing with anybody. Debian
popularity contest says that there is much larger number of Emacs
users.

The true representative survey information could be obtained only
within Emacs itself under condition that survey is presented straight
to Emacs user.
