  • Personally, I would be in favor of having polls because I frequently involve people in taking decisions.

    But my use case is quite peculiar because (1) I need to know people’s opinion to take actions based on it, they would not be just informative polls (2) this group of people use Lemmy as their main interaction medium, no other platform is involved.

    I’ve resorted to strawpoll in the past or in having comments with multiple options and relying on the most upvoted comment but these solutions have downsides.











  • Not all mobile apps allow it because it’s a little tricky with the Lemmy APIs.

    • Liftoff used to have thia feature but it’s discontinued;
    • Summit has added this feature, you can access it by “Community info” -> “Instance info” -> “Communities” when you are on a community on the instance you want to explore;
    • RaccoonForLemmy has it in the “Instance info” sheet tapping the “⋮” button in the top bar when you are on a community of the instance you want to explore;
    • I couldn’t find anything similar in Jerboa, Voyager, Thunder and Eternity, don’t know about the other ones.
