I came up with this week's poll. There was some interest in doing a poll related to cancel culture, but I need assistance in what the exact question and the poll options should be.

Pretty good split, I'd say
This week's poll was suggested by Transdude1996. Of the series you're presently consuming, are you mostly keeping up with new releases? Or are you binging series that have already been completed?

Previous Poll Results:
Question: Should an artist's scandals and/or controversies change opinions about their works (e.g., Bill Cosby, Michael Jackson, Tatsuya Matsuki, Nobuhiro Watsuki)?
Choices:
No, the key to art is how it affects those experiencing it so it's separate from the artist - votes: 1966 (66.6%)
Yes, art is an expression of the individual so who they are and what they do matters - votes: 985 (33.4%)
There were 2951 total votes.
The poll ended: October 23rd 2021
I'm tempted to do a poll about cancel culture
This week's rather serious poll was suggested by jacob66. If an artist is involved in some scandal or controversy, does that affect how you view their works? For manga examples, there's MATSUKI Tatsuya and ACT-AGE and WATSUKI Nobuhiro and Rurouni Kenshin.

I'm curious if MangaDex has public stats on what settings users have
This week's poll (suggested by Nekomikoto) is similar to last week's, but it's more about how you like to read a series than how the panels are laid out.

I was actually expecting the results to be more even due to the popularity of webcomics
This week's poll was suggested by icassop. Do you vertical strips of panels like webtoons or the more traditional layout of a page of manga?

Lots of night owls here. Or maybe that's because the daytime is when the bad stuff happens (school, work, etc)
This week's poll was inspired by morinchan. I guess I could've added more nighttime options like midnight, but oh well.

Shape isn't taste
Our member superspartan177, asking the important questions here. Do you care about the shape of a chicken nugget? Maybe it doesn't matter a whole lot, but what's your favorite shape? I see the dino nuggets at Costco a lot, and I also found a Texas-shaped nugget in a Google image search.

I grew up loving space and learning about the Apollo program. Apollo 13 is a great movie, if you've never seen it
This week's poll was suggested by jacob66. You remember those news stories about Richard Branson and Elon Musk flying to space? Would you go on those trips? (Let's assume you're able to actually reach the accepted altitude for "space".)
