Upvote/downvote ratio instead of total numbers? (lemmy.ml)

Since the last update, I don't see the total number of upvotes and downvotes but a ratio. So when it is at 0, I see 50% which is less interesting than seeing how many people interacted. Was it me upvoting and a single downvote or is it highly controversial with 100-100? Also: in a highly downvoted comment, I want to see how many people actually upvoted it.

Can I change this back in the settings somewhere?

I was really unhappy with that change in the last update as well...

I couldn't find a setting to change it back to the actual numbers, but I think that should absolutely be an option in settings.

As you said, the numbers provide a lot more information regarding engagement/views/how controversial a comment/post is.

Some people may feel it's frivolous, but I'm considering a new app if it remains a percentage.

Agreed. It's a deal breaker.

It takes out of the equation how many people actually interacted with it at first glance.

Edit: The 10% downvote is the most reasonable of the bunch. Please let it be configurable.
