        Hi @Keneda - the link is in my 1st post. Go to https://distrowatch.com, then click on the 'Opinion poll: Do you own a Linux-powered phone?' link. :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

          Hi @ziggutas. I don't see what's complicated about it.

            This is how it looks like. When sellecting Poll it shows the archive, but I can't see the running one.

              Hi @C0n57an71n. I'm using a Desktop PC. Are you using something else?

              This is what I see:

                @Opolork I'm on my Nexus5 and this is how it looks in Morph. I'll look later when I'm in front of my PC.

                  Not saying it's complicated. My comment was directed at the website content. Following your link to the article is ok and they ask for feedback; but no hint as to how! I was expecting to click on a counter or something like that.

                  Anyway, your post has stirred up some results for UT so that's the main thing!πŸ‘

                    @Opolork Your link works on mobile if opened in Onion browser. I voted twice, my PC and phone, just to see if possible, so this poll will not reflect the reality, but at least will make the UT more visible. I wonder how many times can you vote when starting Onion again and again with a different IPπŸ€”

                      As many times as your traffic is routed to a different exit node.

                        @Opolork Yeah. Multiple voting works in Onion on mobile UT.

                              Ok, maybe that's a cookie link or something?

                                          Well, in this instance it is because cast votes are tied to IP address, and since you are using Tor, the IP address the website sees changes all the time.

                                          But in general, yes. While I would't call it a joke per se, popularity metrics on Distrowatch do need to be taken with a heavy bag of salt.
