I'm super impressed by the features I'm discovering using Piefed! I'm going to be experimenting a lot with the keyword filter particularly. Here are some ideas we might add to make Piefed even better. Share you own in the replies.

Some of these options where too long to make it a poll.

Allow voters to write their own choices in polls

If you implement the poll like this one, then they already can ๐Ÿ˜‰

But it allows downvotes, which isn't supposed to be allowed in a poll.

Hrm, good point, and also that raises an interesting idea: to allow posts forbidding downvotes even when on an instance that allows downvoting overall.

With a poll though, you'll still get people spamming weird entries, so that would require a system to moderate the submitted entries, which gets back closer to comments to a post.
