I luv polls! but Lemmy doesn't have them. Reddit used to have a decent polling feature, but they fouled it up around the time they had their IPO. Where can I find a good place for polls?

It has to be at least as good as reddit was; easy to join without a lot of fru fru (username, password, maybe email, and that’s it).

Currently I have, https://www.musicbanter.com/games-lists-jokes-polls/ , but that’s it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks. 🙂

    Piefed has polls, there is even a community dedicated to polls. [email protected]

      OP, try PieFed! https://piefed.social/auth/register It’s actually pretty good. I’m surprised more people aren’t connecting to the Fediverse via PieFed. I recently jumped from Lemmy and PieFed.

      And because this isn’t some corporate hellhole, you don’t get cutoff from Lemmy. Yay ActivityPub!

    Use PieFed if you want to be able to view polls posted to various communities.

    https://piefed.social/c/polls

    There’s even a Polls community on Lemmy.world, but you wouldn’t be able to see or interact with any actual poll posts unless you’re using something that supports viewing it (PieFed, Mbin?, Mastodon, etc).

    I’ve used strawpoll lots in the past. Super basic to answer, no accounts, just vote and then see results. Only one vote per machine, it records IP or machine data or something to prevent voting multiple times.

      Sounds good. 🙂

      I wonder if Lemmy would allow me to create a poll community here where the posts are links to this StrawPoll?

        I wouldn’t see why any instance would disallow a community like that.

    Mastodon has polls. You could look at the #poll hashtag.
