The latest Poll asks for "What is most important to you in a smartphone?"

I believe there is no "only one thing" that is the most important to a person. To me personally, It is the camera, presence of a headphone jack and the company behind it are equally important. Therefore, the ability to choose multiple options from the list would be beneficial.

Also, I would like to add you to add "performance" as an option in the poll.

@Tuskd, I've added the ability for polls now to have up to 10 choices, as well as multiple choice polling functionality. This works for both the homepage, as well as polls attached to news stories. Various other poll-related bug fixes are described in the full details.

  • Added support for multiple choice (end-users can select one or more options to vote for at a single time) vs single choice (end-users can select only one option to vote for). This can be toggled on a poll, if desired, even after it's been created and has received votes
  • Added functionality to support up to 10 polling options. Defaulted to 4 options, and can incrementally add additional to the poll editor form.
  • Added choice indicator to manage poll dashboard
  • Added "Cancel" action on Add and Edit poll forms
  • Moved option's vote count beneath respective field on Edit poll form
  • Fixed bug when there is a tie in the results such that the tied options now all properly display the 1st place blue color bar
  • Fixed bug of >1000 votes missing comma separator in results and poll dashboard
  • Fixed bug of when there has only been one vote, "votes" is no longer pluralized in the results (either for poll total or individual poll option)
  • Fixed bug where a choice with a blank name is no longer displayed to end-users to be able to vote on nor see in results
  • Fixed bug so the poll now correctly populates the options and results for a user if they have somehow managed to vote multiple times for the same poll
  • Confirmed all the above works both on homepage and when poll is attached to news article

    • Higher "Social Charges". I think that is a feel good phrase for 'Employee Deferred Compensation Charges". Then again, they use different wording in the "Old World." More precisely in American Accounting Lingo: "Mark to the Market Employee Differed Compensation Charges."
    • TikTok's "Add to Music App" feature gets support for another music streaming service by David Uzondu Image via Depositphotos.com TikTok's "Add to Music App" feature is getting support for another streaming service: YouTube Music. This comes a few months after the short-form video giant brought the feature to SoundCloud. "Add to Music App", if you have not heard of it, is a feature launched back in November 2023, initially for US and UK users, that makes saving music a lot easier. With this feature, users get an "Add Song" button next to the track name at the bottom of a TikTok video. When a customer first uses the feature, they can select their preferred streaming service from the available options, and this choice then becomes the default for all future one-tap saves (this can be changed anytime in the app's settings). The new YouTube Music integration means you can directly save the track to the streaming service with a single press. Users can also add a track from an artist's Sound Detail Page. When "Add to Music App" first appeared, the options were limited to Spotify and Amazon Music. Since then, TikTok has added Apple Music and Deezer. Each service gets a designated spot for the saved tracks, like Spotify's "Liked Songs" playlist. In YouTube Music's case, the song will land in a dedicated "TikTok Songs" playlist, so you do not have to go hunting for it later. TikTok claims that its "Add to Music App" function has resulted in over 1 billion saves globally since its wider rollout in 2024. On a related note, you probably are already aware of the current divest-or-ban issue TikTok's facing in the US. Howard Lutnick, the US Commerce secretary, recently stated in an interview with Fox News Sunday that President Trump loves the platform and sees it as "a good way to communicate with young people," but the platform's US operations must be handled by an American company, not Chinese.
    • 10 years of using end users as free-guineapigs to test half-baked garbage software...what an achievement 🎉
    • For sure! The first family computer when I was a kid didn't even have a hard drive, just dual 5.25" floppy driver. You would boot from the DOS disk in drive A, run your programs from drive B, and maybe sneak a data disk into drive A and just hope it wouldn't try to access something from the DOS folder while you did that. My dad added a 20 MB (yes, megabyte) hard drive to the computer, it was SUCH a quality-of-life improvement, lol!
    • The Settings app was first introduced in Windows 8 and Microsoft continued to add to the settings app in Windows 10.
