@inte How do you see a poll being useful on this? Up&Down votes in the earlier question will do the same. Also, check the polling guideline - the question & answers should all be wiki posts

@inte

please make sure that answers in polls are alway a wiki...

No more polls for today :) @simo polls make more clear if people dislike something since downvotes are not visible...

and how do you prevent voting down of poll answers? ps. Change your question to wiki post

Either trust all users or downvote and voteup the other answer. Everybody has one upvote and downvote, stays the same I guess. Of course there is nothing to prevent fake accounts as well. This is not an official voting and I'm only a user, it's only ment to get a rough idea about what people think. Maybe Jolla can bring up their own, official poll like they did during the tablet campaign. However, at least for this poll the result seems quite clear at present.

Cover swipes rule cause they are #unlike!

This answer gets my vote. But not because cover swipes are "unlike" but because they worked better than the buttons. Being "unlike" should not be a goal in itself. An "unlike" solution should be used only if it's also better. :)

I thought the cover actions were gone until I read this question :O

I don't mind the buttons really as long as the cover swipes work as well. I don't see why they couldn't work together.
