Ever since Poll featured arrived on Leothreads. I have created tons of polls and tried it in many different ways and found some benefits that's worth sharing here.
5 Ways and Benefits of Using Decentralized Polls of Leothreads
Polls are useful in different ways and not just for an individual but also beneficial for all other Dapps, Games or products built on Hive.
Here are some ways of using polls I noticed that will benefit entire ecosystem;
1. Products Review through Polls
Most of Dapps, Games or newly launch products can take full advantage of polls for their products.
Simply creating a poll on threads like
Can give you a Good review and feedback from people. Leothreads is full of Hive users and mostly projects need a twitter like platform (Leothreads) where they can get review or feedback from community people. this is the best possible way of using Polls.
And the benefit of this one particular thing is it will help you know what people like or not and also more hive users will get to know about your project.
2. Doing Survey Through Polls
I have seen many survey on internet but decentralized survey is possible through Polls on Leothreads.
And I have already tried and tested this idea of doing Survey.
I did the first survey of LPUD through Polls in previous LPUD event.
Doing this particular survey helped me understand about why people do join LPUD event, what they like about it, did they won prizes from LPUD.
So, through Polls any project or a person can do survey about anything freely.
3. Governance through Polls
polls can play a role in Governance like decentralized Voting if people want this feature, Change in a particular project or not.
Easy to decide such Things on the basis of community votes.
4. Role of polls in contests
We see there a lot of contests going on everytime and There's always a need to pick a winner.
So, with polls it gives people a choice to vote for the deserving one's and based on decentralized picks no one can complain if this is based unfairly.
5. Decentralized Curation through Polls
This is already happening as Leofinance came up with an idea of decentralized Curation for different niche communities.
Some of posts will be picked every week by a community and there will be voting on Polls which one should be featured and curated.
You can see the author of the week #1 winners where each others was picked through decentralized Polls voting on Leothreads.
This is also one of best possible way of integrate polls to other communities of Hive.
How to reach more crypto people to use Polls in a regular basis?
I think competitive polls like there once happened a battle of Blockchain on twitter where bots were voting and such things happen more often there and bringing incentives like competitive on Leothreads through Polls.
Will reach more diverse crypto people of different chains or protocols.
level up the experience of Polls
So, after all there are plenty of ways I mentioned above that is more beneficial than using polls on twitter.
Also mostly polls on twitter are being voted from bots meanwhile there's real users/human behind voting on Polls decentralized only on Leothreads.
This is more than enough to level up the experience of polls. More user friendly and works fast as well.
