OK, now I realize this is probably just bot-generated SF clickbait. Weird.

I haven’t seen them recently in the WAYWT thread…hence the poll!

I almost always have a pocket square on with any suit/jacket. I usually wear a tie too with a suit but I'm around 50/50 since most colleagues work remotely (I go in most of the time). I have silk knot cuff links that I sometimes wear but reserve metal for black tie. Never been a fan of tie bars.

Links and studs and squares, yes, tie bars, no.

I am anti pocket squares.

I have a collection of vintage cuff links I enjoy wearing. Never a tie bar though, as if I am in a suit, I have on a vest.
My brother did give me a 1960's skinny tie Frisch's Big Boy tie bar as a joke birthday gift, so I do own a tie bar.

i like tie bars but that's partly an expression of distaste for the necktie .

i'll add that i think the bowtie has gotten a bad rap .

No mention of collar pins and watch chains.

For me, it depends on the season. I'm more likely to wear classic accessories with other vintage items in the fall/winter to give a vintage look. I have a few cufflinks from the 1910s-20s.

Firstly, I always wear my father’s tie pin in the boutonnière of whatever jacket I am wearing because I miss him deeply and it also looks great.

Secondly, I always wear a tie bar whenever I wear a tie, but it’s never visible as I use it to pin only the tie blade to the shirt, not the whole tie.

Thirdly, I wear a ring sometimes if I’m really dressing up.

My cufflinks, which I seldom wear, because I no longer
wear suits much, are all antique in gold, silver or onyx
purchased decades ago at the Burmondsey Market in London
or the like. They are distinguished by having both sides the same.

I find a subtle tie clip very practical to keep my tie in place at work and out of my soup

Same, even though I wear more formal clothes quite rarely.
