There is a major problem with this. I wrote code to enable polls in comments, which is currently in testing and likely to be rolled out soon. This won’t be available on the Subreddit, nor will any other improvements I or anyone else may make to the Less Wrong codebase in the future, unless we get those features rolled out for all of Reddit, which is unlikely. I am opposed.

That’s great- don’t get me wrong!- but this just means that, if you want to conduct a poll, you should do it on LW instead of the sub-reddit. The two are not intended to be mutually exclusive; you’re supposed to use both.

But then won’t open threads on LW continue to be necessary?
