What's your opinion on the feed upvote/downvote layout? (lemmy.ca)

With the option enabled, you can see post downvote tallies as well but it's displayed as a ratio. Unless I'm forgetting or just missed it, I haven't seen anyone comment on it either. Good or bad.

Personally, I don't like it and would prefer separate numbers for the upvotes and downvotes. The ratio stands out. Not just within Connect UI but also compared to other platforms' design. Separate numbers would make the UI more standard and also reduce the extra spacing to make room for the height difference.

If you completely disagree, that's totally valid and I'm actually more curious to see these comments, for perspective.

I wish the voting buttons were on the right side of the screen.

Have you tried the setting?

I didn't know there is a setting! But now I found "handedness", which is an odd name for the setting, and which has no preview, but it worked, so thanks!

My only thought on the vote counts is I really don't like the red color on the dark theme. I can barely read it.
