What addons? Any that I would know about?

Coding is something I like doing but doing it all the time is bad for my health and takes my eye off the real world and its beauty. So vacations are vacations from coding and I have them.

At my previous job it was almost a norm to contact me while I was on vacation to make quick fixes, find "lost" code etc.
In my younger day (before parenthood) I also used to do some casual coding for fun or learning.

I would if it counted as paid time - more or less, sitting on a beach in the Caribbean, coding, whilst accumulating pay and using none of my real vacation time.
However, that does not appear to be on the horizon.
Probably all for the best - because then what would I do when on real vacation? Stay home and fix things?

I dont have a vacation
...then there's must be something wrong with you. A friendly reminder: Leave your work off when on vacation and have a life.

I sometimes code to work on my hobby projects. I don't work on vacation though.

I answered Absolutely, as there was no entry 'Only on vacation'.
I enjoy 4 to 6 months vacation per year.

Why shouldn't I do what I enjoy when on vacation?

Since the survey only mentioned if one "codes" on vacation and not if that is for the company:
Vacation is the only time I code in Python, as my pet projects are based on python projects I get from some AI books.

I used to and even would sit at home on days off and work. I was even dumb enough to work on extended holidays. Thinking that my difference meant something. Never again. Life is too short; enjoy it while you can!

AgreeN. When I was in my 20's, I routinely worked 50-60+ hour weeks, thinking that this somehow made me more valuable. It did, in that my employer was getting 10-20+ hours for free every week. They vaguely appreciated it, but the 'appreciation' never matched my effort.
Thirty years later I ignore the work phone after hours, I never put in overtime, and I always take advantage of paid time off.

I'm in the same boat, more or less.
I used to work on my own little pet projects evenings, weekends, and on vacation days, but no longer - life has simply caught up with me, and I no longer feel the motivation to work on any of that.
That said, I've never done any work-related stuff on my own time. I'm not that big of a sucker. That's not to say OTOH that stuff I've done on my own time hasn't eventually benefited my employer - reusing bits of pieces of my own code, that sort of thing.

That's Chris's Aussie accent showing. Without spell check he spells it like he says it.  
I beat Sean and the others saw it but decided to leave it in out of their dedication to Chris.
