Readers of the #Fediverse, I would greatly appreciate your participation in this #Mastodon poll: Do you judge books by their covers?

By that I mean, does the cover of a book influence your decision to read it or not? Please boost this post once you have voted, and if you want to state the reason for your vote, feel free to leave a reply.

Dear Fediverse community, Do you like to have compartmentalized Fediverse accounts for various things you do or are interested in? (Text-based posts for Mastodon, photos for Pixelfed, etc). Or do you prefer one account to try to do it all? Also, what are the benefits or drawbacks of each? I’ve tried both ways myself, but would appreciate anyone who is willing to offer their two cents! Thanks in advance!

As a developer of flatpak applications who published or attempted to publish on flathub, did you have an app you thought were unfairly rejected on flathub or any kind of bad experience with flathub as a developer ? Do you feel like there should be a competitor to flathub? Answer the poll and give details in the replies. #poll #mastodonPoll #flatpak #flathub #mastopolls

#MastodonPoll: best response to "Iran can never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon"? (pick one)
1. "That's why we should have stuck with the JCPOA, which Obama negotiated and Trump blew up. Bombing Iran makes them more likely to seek a nuclear weapon." (redirect)
2. "Actually, they can and should be allowed and even encouraged to have a nuclear weapon." (contradict)
3. "Who are we to allow or disallow Iran from seeking a nuclear weapon?" (disclaim responsibility)
4. "Iran wouldn't have been able to complete a nuclear weapon anyways." (argue mootness)
5. "Do you remember nothing from the run-up to the Iraq War?" (appeal to history)
