It goes on the line! If you put it below, you're wasting a line for no extra readability!

Totally agree, all my { end up on the next line, 1st spot when starting a function, last character of the keyword when starting an if/for/... section. I even put the closing one on the same line when it's single line, else either at the end of the closing line (when changing really old code) or same indent.

So indenting varies a lot, which makes most 'new' programmers go mental.

while (my code)
    { I'll do it my way }

if (! liked)
 { toughen-up }
else
 { get used to it
   multi-line can go both ways...
 }

That is, unless the font used messes it up. ;)

Wonder what the x-axis is? Survey year? Years of experience? Caffeine intake?

Anyway, I can hardly join a holy war -- I code in assembly most comfortably, which I'm pretty sure is heresy these days.
