It's very nice to see that X people liked a post/comment and Y people disliked it instead of just having a singular "goodness/badness" rating. It (literally, in a mathematical sense) adds a whole new dimension to post ratings and gives us a more nuanced understanding of people's opinions. Plus, it feels a lot better to see that 5 people agreed with you and 7 disagreed when you made a controversial statement instead of just seeing a score of -1 telling you how bad you are.

How are you seeing the split votes? I can only see the aggregate number.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

It's not on by default. Check the settings.

Depends on the app you're using.

I’m using Voyager, as the community name suggests the OP is. Using the AppStore version on iOS which may make a difference.

Settings > Appearance > Display Votes > Separate

[–] yesterdayshero 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You should have an option. I'm not on iOS. But try go to settings > appearance and there should be a Votes section that lets you pick separate.

I’m an idiot. I did look there, saw the voting buttons option and missed the ‘show votes’ which is right at the end.

Thanks for that :)

Aww man I'm using Sync, I don't see options to change it, all I see is how many points a post has.
