Re: [csswg-drafts] Can we enable polls in this repo? (#13733)

The CSS Working Group just discussed `Can we enable polls in this repo?`, and agreed to the following:

* `RESOLVED: Turn on polls in github`

<details><summary>The full IRC log of that discussion</summary>
&lt;astearns> q+<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> lea: we've often done social media polls. github actually supports polls in Discussions<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> lea: then we could send people to vote there instead of having separate polls<br>
&lt;castastrophe> +1<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> lea: woudl make it easier, and add some legitimacy to the polls too<br>
&lt;kbabbitt> +1<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> lea: could enable it, but wanted group feedback first<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> lea: nicer than social media polls too, can add a lot more context and aren't length limited<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> +1<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> astearns: I went looking at what we need to do, seems I have the power to enable discussions<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> astearns: they were disabled, dont' recall why<br>
&lt;Rossen> ack astearns<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> ChrisL: I think they were disaabled deliberately after repo was started<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> ChrisL: there's a dark pattern where people don't want issues, so they turn them off and open discussions. as long as we don't do that it's fine<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> fantasai: let's just make sure to keep discussion in issues, not in discussions<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> Rossen: with caveat about needing a GH account...<br>
&lt;miriam> some social media platforms (like bluesky) don't even have a poll feature<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> TabAtkins: they need a GH account to comment on issues anyway<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> Rossen: quick vote<br>
&lt;ChrisL> +1<br>
&lt;castastrophe> +1<br>
&lt;lea> +1<br>
&lt;Kurt> +1<br>
&lt;ydaniv> +1<br>
&lt;miriam> +1<br>
&lt;fantasai> +1<br>
&lt;dshin> +1<br>
&lt;TabAtkins> RESOLVED: Turn on polls in github<br>
