Inside with other people around, sure.

Haven't worn one since I got the vaccine. I was working full time the whole way through as a regional truck driver but didn't catch it until January 2022. It was meh.

I wore one when the air quality was bad from the forest fires, otherwise I don't. Don't have a problem putting one on again if Covid or some other virus got bad again. But since it is summer here, wearing a mask makes me sweat to death

I wear them at the doctor because they require it still. I pretty much don't wear one anywhere else. I wore one on the plane on the flight to my destination to not get sick and ruin the trip but I didn't wear one on the way home because I wasn't as concerned at ruining a week of work. (This was in early 2023.) I will probably wear one in crowded areas in the week before DragonCon (a big convention in Atlanta) to not get sick and miss it.

I do when taking public transportations or visiting high risk relatives. Two of my relatives died due to Covid, one had long Covid, still hadn't recovered. I don't want to accidentally spread it to anyone else with a weak immune system.

Depends on where I am but generally I do. In the countryside, almost nobody bothers wearing a mask anymore.

If I'm indoors with people other than immediate family, I'm wearing a mask.

I bring it around with me everywhere I go, just in case, and I always wear it at the doctor's office or if I'm sick. Mostly it just stays in my pocket nowadays though.

I’ve been wearing them consistently since 2020 but I’ve recently moved to Oregon where cases have been some of the lowest levels in the country and I’ve been thinking I’d like to stop soon

My kid still wears a mask obsessively. Her face is unevenly tanned. She wants to wear it for bike rides and literally everything aside from being at home.

I probably should now. I didn't need to much for the first couple of years of the pandemic because I basically just stayed home and only put one on when I was going to be around people.

But the issue is I can't ever seem to get a good seal and between breathing into my eyes and wearing glasses it just becomes way harder to deal with and now I'm vaccinated I don't feel as much of a thing for it.

I'll probably wear one more during cold season as I use to get one once or twice every year before the pandemic.

That said, there are still places I will wear it, like the doctor's office.

I still wear musk most of the times.

I mainly avoid doing anything with any appreciable covid risk. If I can't, like, if I have to go to a doctor, in person, then I will wear a mask. Turns out I still think giving people brain damage is a morally bad thing to do. And if you do any basic modelling of virus spread, any one infection becomes the ancestor of many thousands of cases in the first two years. From there you just apply the long covid rates and death rates, which shows trivially that spreading covid is morally equivalent to killing people, and maiming hundreds of people. So I do whatever I can to avoid that, including masks where appropriate, but more importantly, avoiding situations where you even have to mask. In my view each individual's right to go to a restaurant or whatever does not outweigh the consequences of covid spread (before you even factor mutation in). Of course, I realize this won't solve anything at a societal/global level. But individual morality is still a thing in my view.

Due to my job as a public university employee I am still required to wear a mask to set an example to the general public. The exceptions are when exercising or when alone (no one else within 2 m radius).

I'm up to date on my COVID vaccine so I only wear a mask if I'm sick

Never, don't see the point and invited company you won't like. Who cares if people disagree with you? It's fun to be provocative lol.
