This new iteration of the Poll feature will include custom Polls.

Right now Nemmy only supports Yes/No Polls that use upvotes and downvotes.

The new system will allow users to specify their own poll with their own options.

Here is the link to the post in the screenshot:

On Lemmy ui

Edit:

I almost finished the backend for handling polls (see updated screenshot). The numbers you see in the screen are already from the new database which Nemmy will use going forward for all extra-features that aren’t built into Lemmy.

I will also use this new database to build my own Image store integration with which will make uploading images directly finally possible.

Also, this post has currently 2 Upvotes and 2 Downvotes… I guess polls as a feature are controversial?

Maybe I should make a poll asking if you guys think polls would be a good feature :D.
