cecf3d4f - remove unnecessary type=button

Compare with previous version

I saw comment in the issue that this would be useful in plain text, I can change it if we still want it

Very nice! I think some form of auto-updating / live preview would be fine if the refresh is throttled or debounced.

Compare with previous version

"Preview" on the right side makes some weird spacing on the left side in modal post form and reply post form. Looks a bit out of place with link coloring but that's just habit i guess.

I'd change "Preview" to "Preview post" just for clarity and move it to the left side.

more stylistic problems:

spacing between preview and post form != spacing between "preview" link
One-line post has different height between "Loading..." and actual post content
close icon's hitbox is a bit too small vertically

I tried adding polls to the preview, it doesn't work well and while it would be cool to see if your options look the way you wanted I think it's still more weird than useful. maybe I should take out the media files as well from the preview? I mean you see the media below the form already.
