Upvote & Downvote With Gab

On Gab the vote are called "Poll". They can easily be added to any post. Optionally, Poll can be customized. In other words, the Poll options could be "UPVOTE" or "DOWNVOTE" or any other Poll options to your liking on your post.

If Gab feel and lool or Poll are not to your liking, one of the main benefit with Gab is that its software code is open source. This means you could either:

• If you have software engineers skills, you could contribute a new "Vote" optional feature. Which could be automatically added to all posts in a group. Contribution are welcome at https://code.gab.com/gab/social/gab-social Documentation is at https://code.gab.com/gab/social/gab-social/-/blob/develop/CONTRIBUTING.md
• If you're not a software engineer, another option is you could pay a software engineer to create a new "Vote" optional feature. Which could be automatically added to all posts in a group.
