How to make the poll feature on social platforms not suck (kbin.social)

I just had an idea and would like to hear your opinions: I always have to roll my eyes when I see how useless the poll feature on social platforms is. It's just a gimmick. But what if we make it better?

What if there was a kbin magazine where everybody can ask questions and every month the five most upvoted ones are shown as a pop up to some random accounts on that kbin instance? That way we could get a representative answer for at least the whole instance.

I understand what you mean. If we asked like 2% of all active users (which might be enough), you'd get a pop up on average once every 4 years, which is probably not enough to annoy anybody.
