Like, it might really be a stupid question. I found this 5 year and still open Git Issue asking for the functionality: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/787
If so, then how do you make polls on Lemmy?
Who gives a shit about a fucking poll?
Let’s do a poll and find out… Oh, wait.
obviously not you ;-)
“I don’t use it, hence nobody else does either”
Fugitall I’ll hobbits ya I mean upvote but you are the subject of your own angry unwilling hypothesis
if I was as meta as this comment, every time I spoke, i’d probably have to fuck myself
I agree with you but lots of people need general, vague direction that is wholly questionable in it’s truth. It’s something they can sink their teeth into and believe wholeheartedly! /s
Couldn’t you use a 3rd party site and post results? Not ideal, but block is pretty private/anonymous
Have you tried making a poll on mastodon and at mentioning the lemmy community? Mastodon supports polls, and you can post to a lemmy community by at mentioning it from any fediverse service, but I have no idea what lemmy (or piefed) would do with the poll.
Best I can do is a thread where you prepopulate the poll answers as comments and tell people to vote their answer and hope they only vote once. Or you have them respond and manually organize the data yourself.

There’s really no poll feature. Piefed has polls but Lemmy doesn’t.
You could make a poll by asking a question then reading people’s answers, or by linking a poll website.
