My card sorting was the end all and be all of card sorting. No other card sorting will even come close to the categories that I sorted into.

Sorted! Couple of head scratchers in there. Pales in comparison to @mherchel (#11) though :)
- 🇬🇧United Kingdom Emma Horrell
Done :) I'll also share with our wider development team

I sorted the cards and noticed a typo at the end:
You completed our card sort surey and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you for helping us build a better product. Hope you had fun!

Excellent initiative, even if the current structure of the menu is already well organized as far as I'm concerned.

Done. It was hard to not follow the existing Drupal Admin menu layout. I hope that if there are very large changes coming, we provide search out of the box to ensure that users can find what they are looking for.

Done. I tried to sort according to the entities' differences.
- 🇺🇸United States freelock Seattle
Done.
I actually really like the current admin menu organization, but when faced with a blank slate, thought it might be good to re-orient for a site user around the main content entities they would expect to see, and nest the corresponding structure across those -- e.g.
Content (nodes, blocks)
Media
Structure (menus, menu items, taxonomies)
Appearance (theme settings, block layouts) - 🇺🇸United States freelock Seattle
... and you know, as I think about it, the initial question about what role do you have on the website makes me wonder if it would make sense to actually split the menu into different role-based menus?
Content -- show each entity type as primary menu items. No structure or admin info at all.
Builder -- switch the menu to have all the site-builder stuff -- bundle configs, many module configs, all the stuff on structure and configuration menus
Admin -- Reports, module/theme management, user management
... then have some switcher for users that have multiple roles...

Made a structure :)
Missed the opportunity to make subgroups. Used to al contrib modules we have in sites, so had the feeling I missed some menu links

Done and send out to my site admins who might get a little under represented since they might not normally run into a d.o issue ;)
- 🇧🇪Belgium tijsdeboeck Antwerp 🇧🇪 🇪🇺 🌎
Done! This was surprisingly difficult 😆
I also missed subgroups. I combined Modules & Themes in an extensions group, for example. It would be logical to add subgroups for Modules, and Themes, to group their menu items.

Done, (maybe also have a look at what we do in project/admin_toolbar_content)
- 🇳🇱Netherlands seanB Netherlands
Done. This was actually tricky. Thanks for starting this! Will pass it along to clients/editors as well.

Sorted! Was tricky ;sweat;

I've completed the survey. Compared to other recent surveys by other initiatives, this one was relatively easy to complete. I thought about forwarding this to a few clients, but I guess if you only know the editors side of the menu you might struggle with sorting this, because there might be a lot of options you've never seen before.

Done, great to see this effort being made! I forwarded this to 2 colleagues, can't get enough feedback on this I suppose.

Thanks everybody, for completing the exercice and for sharing it! I've given credits to all of you that commented.
We've just closed the Card Sorting with more that 200 answers, and 68 people finishing the Card sort itself. It's enough for now to work on the raw data and start analyzing to get conclusions and get a holistic strategy. We'll post back in this issue as soon as we reach to some conclusions.
For those interested, this is the distribution of roles / profiles from the initial step:
Re. to subgroups: the goal for now is to get an idea of the 1rst level items only to don't make this too complicated taking into account it was targeted to different profiles :)

Thanks to @lauriii I learned Maze gives a link to share the raw results in a readable way for those who asked for them: https://app.maze.co/report/Admin-menu/11bu5dilj16wf64/974c36f3 .
As pointed in the last comment, we'll work on analyzing all this data and we'll post back the results here as soon as we reach to some conclusions.

Thank @dead_arm!! Really good summary of the card sorting given the crazy different and heterogeneous answers we got.
And again, thanks everybody that participated 💙
