Hard to say when I don't know the details. I prefer Work Life Balance and the people, but how would I know if MongoDB .. or whoever, is a fit?

You might want to add a simple description of each company. I don't know half of them and in this dopamine shot optimized format, I don't really have the patience to research every one of them in a different tab.

Would need an option "to not join the other" when asking why.

I'd also like an option for "I'd rather be unemployed".

Yep. Every time a "trading" company came up like Jane Street my only option was to select the other.

Weird that the reasons don't include anything about the actual work. The work I envisage doing is a much more important reason than, say, prestige to me.

Primary reason for my choices was I didn’t want the other company.
Do I want to work for Instacart? Not really. Do I prefer working for Instacart over Tesla? Well, I’d rather go back to hand digging trenches in the rain than work for Tesla, so yeah I prefer Instacart.

Yeah, same for me. Choosing the less bad one.

Ethics is also a big one for me but seems to be missing.

It also mentions “remote” as a reason as if I know which companies allow remote work by heart.

The list is actually missing the only two companies I ever dreamed of joining. Red Hat and Gitlab. Never made it, but I was close with RedHat.
