Allow voters to write their own choices in polls
If you implement the poll like this one, then they already can ๐
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.
