Discord Polls and why we need to scratch the normal reaction polls

Issues with current Reaction polls on Discord:

On Discord, when people hold polls, they have to make a message and manually add the thumbs up and down buttons. It makes it look like you reacted to them even though you only added them. People can also add their own reactions, and react to both thumbs up and down. Also, Reactions aren't for polls, they're for showing your **reaction** to a message without typing.

How Discord Polls would work:

Polls would have an immediate thumbs up and down reaction (or u can choose the emoji, also you can add more options), impossible to add reactions, and have no reactor at first. You can only react to one.

Why we need them:

Polls might sound useless (both the feature and the fact that people do polls) but polls are a lot of fun. They help show what others' favorite things are (like a bigger group liking chocolate more than vanilla) and can also help out servers (should we add this channel or this channel?). But polls in servers right now are bad.

Where to locate polls:
I don't know an exact place to locate polls, but maybe on the little plus symbol in the chatting place (the place for slash commands, media, and threads).
