On every thread or post, if you click on more and activity, you’ll get the info.

I personally find this to be a good things, I’ve seen people using downvote way too easily. I like the idea that we need to be somehow accountable for those mechanism.

edit: It could be somehow improved to have an option to let this info only available between concerned users.

edit edit: I think that up/downvote info shouldn’t be public, but kept private between the users involved. we need to address this privacy issue.

    of course. but it’s not mandatory to use them lightly.

    for me it’s a really powerful statement.

      For me it’s rather trivial. It just means “I like that” or “I don’t like that.” It’s an easy way if someone says something dumb or wrong for everyone to see that what they said was really unpopular. I think blocking is a far less trivial and shouldn’t be bandied about so easily. Commenting in response can be adding to the discussion, or it can just be a super downvote where you explain exactly how wrong they are. You’re entitled to your opinion and I won’t block you for having a different one than mine, but I will downvote when I disagree.

        you do you, but I’m reluctant of building a community where the majority decide what’s popular or unpopular with such behaviour. I’m more inclined to design and act for inclusivity.

        this is exactly what I wish we don’t bring from reddit.

      Unfortunately, that’s not really the common thinking. It was the most commonly ignored piece of reddiquette.
