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.
I don’t think you’ll ever get a concrete answer on this because different people treat even basic numbers differently none the less assigning value to them. I like upvoted/downvote view because I like being able to see what’s controversial. It means a comment is both important to show a dividing line but also might be misleading.
Edit: note of course, I’m saying this while on an instance that doesn’t even federate downvotes at the moment.
