Built to provide better engagement with the audience. Polls can be added to the comments on both regular feed posts and Reels.
The comment section's polls will look similar to those in Stories, where they've been offered for several years as stickers.
As per a screenshot Mosseri shared, users will have visibility into the vote count for specific polls.
Currently unclear how long these polls will stay open after posting or if users can set different timeframes for collecting votes.
