Introducing Polls 📊

We're thrilled to announce that Polls are now live in Bettermode! This has been the most requested and wishlisted feature from our community, and we're excited to finally deliver it.

Whether you’re collecting product input, choosing event topics, or sparking fun conversations, polls help you turn passive readers into active participants — right inside your posts.

🎯 Why This Matters

Communities thrive when members feel heard. Polls make it easier than ever to capture real-time insights, invite participation, and drive discussion, all without leaving the post.

And because polls are built directly into the Composer, you can add them with just a few clicks, customize the voting experience, and publish alongside the rest of your content.

🛠 What’s New

• Create polls directly in any post using the Composer

• Add between 2 to 10 answer choices

• Choose between single or multiple-choice voting

• Set a start time and voting deadline, or leave it open-ended

• View real-time results and make edits before voting begins

• Add multiple polls in a single post

🧪 Beta Feature: Polls are currently in beta, and only admins and space moderators can create polls for now as we refine the experience.

💡 Why You’ll Love It

• Boost participation: Encourage members to vote, react, and stay engaged

• Gather insights: Make faster, data-informed decisions from your community

• Add variety to your content: Blend text, images, and polls into more dynamic posts

• Stay in control: Edit, schedule, and manage polls before publishing
