I was hoping Ponder would boost existing polls already running instead of copy them for featured polls. 

Feelsbadman. 😔

I would not have paid to launch my ponder poll had I known they would launch an almost identical poll hours after. 

Bummer aside, a solution comes to mind. 

A neat idea would be to put a LLM between to catch planned featured polls by the Ponder team and bounce them so users don’t pay to launch a poll that ultimately gets overshadowed by a platform self-featured poll.

There’s also still 12 hours left on mine though and 16 on there’s so who knows 😶‍🌫️ maybe the protocol is broad enough for both to be equal!
