Just a little 3x3 survey.

Pb: 5.23
Method: CFOP
Secondary method: 3-style for 3BLD i guess
Number of algs: many, depending on your definition of algs. If you call 3style algs, it would be in the thousands.
Main: Gan 356 XS
When I started cubing: no clue, on and off (mostly off) for years. Never quitting again though.
Color neutrality is better
How serious i am abt cubing: 8, im very serious but i have other things in life as well so it is not quite a 10
 
PB: 13.81
Primary method: Roux
Secondary method(s): I did Mehta for a few months...
Number of algs you know: CMLL (42) + a few PLL (I knew full PLL for Mehta but forgot it since I switched back to Roux)
Your main cube: Gan 12 MagLev
When you started cubing: beginning of 2020
What's more useful, color neutrality or method neutrality?: I'd say color neutrality, method neutrality requires quite some work to get equally fast with several methods (I suppose...)
Right now, on a scale of 1-10, how serious are you about cubing (1 being casual, 10 being serious)?: 5 (I do a lot of solves per day, but don't really learn new algs or stuff)

Note: Oh, Silky and I have the same PB! Hi buddy :)
Oi! Cheers :) and you use Roux!! Perhaps we're doppelgangers??
 
PB: Idk high 6
Primary method: Roux
Secondary method(s): CFOP
Number of algs you know: 78 CFOP + 42 CMLL (there is some overlap)
Your main cube: RS3M Maglev
When you started cubing: Summer 2017
What's more useful, color neutrality or method neutrality?: Cn
Right now, on a scale of 1-10, how serious are you about cubing (1 being casual, 10 being serious)?: 8
 
I'm super curious about what different cubers know and how certain knowledge/skills translate to faster solves. So I thought I'd make this little survey to quench my thirst for data. I encourage everyone to respond regardless of skill level!

I'll start:
PB: 36.50
Primary method: Edges-first keyhole with CLL/ELL
Secondary method(s): Quadrangular francisco, ZZ-orbit
Number of algs you know: 9 F2L + 6 ZZ-orbit + 7 CLL + 10 ELL (including the 4 EPLL's) = 32
Your main cube: DaYan LingYun v2
When you started cubing: April 2020
What's more useful, color neutrality or method neutrality?: Method
Right now, on a scale of 1-10, how serious are you about cubing (1 being casual, 10 being serious)?: 7
