Anonymous polls aren't entirely anonymous

not sure if this is how the feature is intended to work, but when people vote in your anonymous polls you still get a notification saying who voted. it's pretty easy to then go and check which option went up by 1, if you're keeping an eye out.

even if it's only the OP who can see that, it defeats some of the purpose of polls being anonymous imho. instead maybe just show "A user voted in your poll" or such!

This is interesting, I've never gotten a notification on a poll I've marked as anonymous 😭 but I haven't made any in awhile, I wonder if this is a recent thing

I have never gotten a notification from who voted on my polls unless it was public voting. 

interesting. this might be a bug. or since this thread is old af, it used to be a thing that was changed
