Recently, lots of things are going around HF 17 and other issues. But we don't have any neat tool to acknowledge stakeholder's opinions.
However, the solution can be simple. Make a poll tab in Steemit.
If one creates a poll, it actually is a post with payout declined, as like @steempoll does. The difference is there are comments for each option with declined payout too. We can measure preference for each from in stakes. Downvote is not included in the calculation to avoid doubling power.
People can discuss in the post, and change their vote as discussion goes.
It should be simple but highly visible in Steemit.
The result is not final, but can provide important inputs from the community.

I like this idea a lot. Community feedback is really key!
Yep, that's what I suggested (among other suggestions) in this post:

Oops.. forgot to decline payout... All payouts from this post will be burnt.
Never mind, we know your mind. ^^
This is really important idea.
100% agree with you
interesting idea! maybe for some polls we should allow voting with percentages on various options (with a total of 100%)?
I think it is a very good idea.
The reason I like steemit is because share with each other and go to a higher place.
And now is the time to share that opinion.
⬆️ 🆙 💯 👍
클레이옵 당신은 최고입니다. 감사합니다. 제가 원하던것이 바로 이런 것입니다. 시각적으로 보여지는 커뮤니티내 동의 입니다.
There is a service for voting from @xtar in Golos. Do we have the same in Steem?
I really like the idea. Two thumbs up!
