I’ve started noticing this icon more and more: usually on comments with no downvotes. What’s it mean?

      So it’d show something like, for example: “21 (%50)” for a post that has 21 up votes and 21 downvotes?

      Gotta be honest I much preferred the individual vote totals directly beside the buttons. Glad there’ll be options.

          I really really hate this change.

          Is there 20k people on the fence, or just one person that disagrees… You can’t tell anymore.

    Hey, let’s test it out: I will immediately downvote this comment. Everyone else should down vote it, too. Let’s see how far we can push the counter down…

      Yeah, looking at things a bit more it seems they rearranged how votes are displayed.

      Instead of a cumulative total at the top, then individual up/down totals at the bottom; they just show the cumulative total with the downvotes next to it at the top.

      I could have sworn I had still seen total upvotes at the bottom still, but I’m not seeing them now.
