I always feel like I'm the only one that still smokes joints these days. Personally I dislike the taste of pipes and bongs. I don't care how much people say bongs or pipes "save" I just find smoking a joint much more enjoyable.
I found a MAPS study and apparently joints have the best tar to thc ratio testing against 7 other devices including bongs and vapes.

I wasn't really surprised at the results. I always remembered hearing when i was younger that bongs "filter" out some thc.
I'm not saying bongs are bad I mean bongs filter out all sorts of other things
"Research has shown that water filtration reduces both the amount of particulate matter and the number and quantity of toxic substances in the smoke that passes through it. In a 1963 study by Hoffman et al.,5 the water pipe was found to retain 90% of the phenol and 50% of the particulate matter and benzo-a-pyrene of the original tobacco smoke. In another study,6 tobacco smoke components that were passed through a water pipe showed only a minor hyperplasic reaction and no sebaceous gland destruction when they were painted onto mouse skin. (The application of substances to mouse skin to assess carcinogenic potential is a classic toxicological test; the induction of abnormal cell proliferation [hyperplasia] is a red flag.)"
