Introducing Reddit Polls, An All-New Post Type

[/u/LanterneRougeOG]

If you’re looking for an opinion on anything — the most underrated TV show of the nineties; the very best drugstore mascara; the most athletic NFL player of all-time — there’s no better place to get honest answers and gauge consensus, than on Reddit. Today, in an effort to elevate Reddit’s diverse opinion-based content, we’re excited to introduce Polls: a brand new post type that encourages redditors to share their opinion via voting. We’ve been testing Polls with a dozen communities over the past couple months, and have gotten a lot of great feedback. We are excited to now release this post type to everyone! Why Polls? It can sometimes be tough for new redditors and lurkers to know where to start on Reddit, , and to feel a sense of community. We believe a simple post type that reduces the posting barrier will make it easier than ever for everyone to contribute to their favorite communities and engage in different ways. Here’s a look at some of our recent test polls Viewing the results of a poll on new Reddit Trunks...the people have spoken Platform Support iOS: Supports poll creation and voting Android: Supports poll creation and voting (EDIT: there is a bug on old versions of Android that cause the app to crash for some redditors when they vote. Updating the app to the new version will fix it.) New Reddit (web): Supports poll creation and voting Old Reddit (web): Does not support creation. At the bottom of a poll, redditors will see a link to view the poll. Clicking the link will open a new tab where they can view results and vote in the poll Mobile web: Supports voting. No plans for poll creation support And now a poll... With everything going on in the world, how are you feeling? View Poll submitted by /u/LanterneRougeOG [link] [comments]
