That’s probably what is happening. It might be a good idea to invalidate this poll as the results don’t seem stable, and start another discussion to see if it even needs to happen.
I know you got this community recently, but you seem to be pushing for changes that are not supported by a majority of the community (be it 71-69 or 57-70)
It is not for any gains as i am not a dev or built any foss apps . I am just trying to help and motivate people to use better apps and tools. And it was 71- 65 when i wrapped the thread i think people from this thread ia contributing now.
I am pretty tolerant towards non FOSS clients for Lemmy. Sync and Boost allowed a lot of people to join Lemmy, and they still use those apps everyday.
I follow and sometimes contribute to the community because I think it’s nice to have a central place to see the latest updates, FOSS or not. The community wasn’t actively moderated, but people didn’t care because the topic is pretty much conflict free
Then someone like you or another person jumps in and pushes for only FOSS to be allowed, while a post from a week ago about a Boost update has 34 upvotes and 4 downvotes.
We all want Lemmy to succeed, but we also have to accept opinions of other people in how to do so and manage this kind of cross-Lemmy communities

See it from the community perspective.

Link and sync aldready has their own big ass community i don’t they are gonna miss this one .
Based in your poll, there is no clear agreement from the community on this.
There isn’t but that is also what happened when i announced i am not gonna change it to foss only hence the poll
The poll which is evenly split, so not really giving any reason to change the current status of this community, which accepts both FOSS and non FOSS
