    Sometimes I still use them when I save a file because I'm old and we didn't used to have spaces in filenames and it's habit.

    occasionally when programming but i'm more likely to camelCase when it comes to variable names.

    otherwise I don't use them much.

    and really, I don't feel anything when i see them. unlike ampersands, which are lovely &&&

    I find underscores to be distasteful besides the good use of splitting info up or creating headings.

    It's use in usernames just looks unsightly in my opinion.
