Suggestion: Add voting plugin for feature requests

Feedback Archive

I’m building ActivityWatch and we too have a Discourse forum with a feature suggestion category.

One nice thing with it is that we added a plugin to enable voting! This has made it a lot easier for users to express their desires (no more “+1” replies!) and for us to understand how many want a certain feature (which helps massively in prioritizing what to work on).

I think adding the plugin and setting it up for the feature suggestions category would be of benefit here too :slight_smile:

I see it’s added now, very nice!

Now you just need the other plugin enabled so you can mark features as done :slight_smile:
