We’re adding the ability to customize this in the upcoming release, but I’m wondering what people think would be a good default.
The 4 pieces of showable/hideable info are: Upvotes, Downvotes, Score, and Upvote %.
In Jerboa, I had a temporary default (until the next lemmy release), of Score + Upvote %, but people seem to dislike this a lot.
I’ll check back on this in a few days to see the result.
You must log in or register to comment.
Up + Down. That way you can’t use trolling/harassment to massage the perception of a post.
Put it this way: Do you want the nazis who downvote everything left of Hitler to have any sway over a conversation?
Up and down preferably, anything else is just worse.
Otherwise overridable by user preference would be great.
The way it is in lemmy-ui now is fine.
Upvotes and downvotes, but also add the YouTube lightsaber which shows the ratio?
As close to Reddit Is Fun (RIF Is Fun) as possible.
No percent… but have as non default option…
Post rating is good already. Upvote button, score, downvote button. This could be same for comments, but horizontal. And on hover just show upvotes and downvotes individually as it’s done for posts already.
I think it should display only the score. But when I hover with my mouse it should show the upvote and downvote count.
The same goes to the mobile version, but instead of hovering with a mouse I can hold my finger on the score and the app displays the upvote/downvote count.
I like a more simple and clean approach, I believe this helps bring less tech-savvy users to lemmy.
I always want to hide downvotes but I get why that would be a bad default.
I just don’t care to see them in any other way than sorting.
Difficult to say until we’ve seen it in action for a while. Could we trial each for a while and then ask us again?
I honestly love the way Alexandrite does the interface on Lemmy.world. I used photon for awhile too, but the way Alexandrite does voting made a positive overall experience that was more pleasant long term, (a.Lemmy.world & p.lemmy.world). Alexandrite simply ignores the down vote count and displays the total. Overall negativity is not clearly seen unless the count goes below zero.
Long term this makes a more positive overall experience across the spectrum of emotions in real life, especially for someone struggling through disability. The only way I would change this is to add a negative vote view in the … extras.
I’m not really sure what any of this means but if something has one upvote and one down vote it should show that?
