Poll: what it means

A poll is a post that asks a question with a few answer choices people vote on for a limited time. X polls take two to four options of up to 25 characters, open between five minutes and seven days. A poll cannot carry images or video on X.

Mastodon polls also take two to four options and cannot be combined with media.

The composer checks the number and length of options before scheduling.
