Yup - but how often do you actually "find" cat crap?
They take the time to bury or to do it where it won't be found - under hedges and the like.

Daily. In the middle of my lawn.

I voted dogs, but I’m pretty 50/50. Cats can be utterly hilarious at times with their antics. Case in point...

cats compulsively bury their leavings though, how often have you seen cat leavings just left lying around?
dogs just fire away and leave it where it lands, well, unless they try eating it again.
I grew up with cats and dogs. Would always say I was more of a dog person, as although I liked the cats we had, they were quite boring, mostly slept and never showed any affection much.
I got a cat about a year and a half ago when one of my mate's parents had an unwanted litter and my wife pestered me for about a week (she used to be a dog person too). I couldn't think of a good enough reason to say no - I didn't really want it at the time - but now very pleased we got him.
One thing I will say to people who say cats are standoffish and lack personality, ours can be like that sometimes for sure. We've had him for about 18 months, and only now is he starting to show affection often and it seems like he's actually showing some sense that he likes us.
To contrast, we dog sat a working cocker spaniel for a friend recently. She is a lovely dog, but requires so much attention compared to the cat. Not to mention taking up more space, making more noise and eating a hell of a lot more.
One day we'll get a dog, for sure, but for now I'm definitely inclined to say I'm more of a cat person.
I think people who don't like cats do so because they've never had one, and don't get how they operate. Whereas people who don't like dogs probably, fairly, don't fancy the hassle, noise and attention requirements.

Mow your lawn then. The only time I ever have cats poo on my lawn is when i haven't cut it for a while and it's really long
Yup, cats make you work for their affection, whereas dogs are more like "OMG YOU FED ME, I LOVE YOU!", "OMG YOU THREW A STICK, I LOVE YOU", "OMG YOU KICKED ME IN THE FACE, I LOVE YOU!". At least when a cat shows you affection you know they actually mean it
I guess some people just can't be bothered, or can't take the rejection!

When I go to the in-laws, their dogs are like affection sponges. Won't ever leave you alone, they need constant stroking and just won't leave you alone. I like them, they are really nice dogs and they are well trained too, but they are seriously needy.
Literally daily in the middle of my lawn! It's disgusting.

The Internet.
So are humans... But if dogs are like that, you need to be a better master.
More people (about twice as many) are allergic to cats than dogs.

Cats 100%.
Dogs are disgusting animals. They stink. You have to clean them. I can instantly tell if there is a dog in a house or car by the vile smell. They do massive disgusting s***s everywhere and a lot of owners don’t even bother to pick it up. They slobber and lick you which is also disgusting. They can be unpredictable. When a dog comes running up to you have no idea what it’s going to do..bite you, jump on you, sniff you.

That's a natural mechanism for weeding out the unworthy!!
If it is on the surface just lying there, it is rather more likely to be Fox
Have you ever brought your dog home from a walk that's rubbed it's head in fox poo? Oh dear god.
