Let's ignore the petty attack mentality and actually talk about solutions... you seem to have a lot of issues with people these days and are taking it out on us... i get it... you're frustrated. But let's talk solutions.
SOLUTION ONE
I personally think that all votes and downvotes should be shown on the same screen with both of them sorted by AMOUNT Example: a -1.01 would be ahead of the 1.00 for example but it would have the negative sign. Sometimes there are hundreds of votes so we show by default the top 10-20 and then let them see the rest. Also maybe a second sort mechanism to see downvotes first.
This would be great... but it takes work to create it.
Also i think there should be ONE VOTE button and a way to switch it from up to down. That's a UI solution that would be awesome... but it takes work to create it.
And before we create it the truth is we're going to redo that entire bottom section of posts so we want to wait until AFTER we do that so that we're not doing things twice. So the plan is to wait until after the post UI changes to address some of these UI things.
OTHER: THE SOLUTION
It is my opinion that it should be an END USER DECISION meaning the end user should decide which level of downvotes they see. We can put a default and then users can change it and see what they want to see.
However the API apparently didn't allow for this to be possible from what i know so we couldn't do that method.
And then the real solution is the things we want to do to the layout of the bottom of posts so taking on this solution doesn't make sense given our very very limited resources when we could wait to solve the entire set of issues.
So yeah I actually agree with you in a way that it isn't fair that we are treating one downvote differently than the others without giving the end user a say. But I'd hate to break it to you but I'm guessing 99.9% of users would continue to not want to see the .001 downvotes. But yeah they should have that choice... but alas I'm told the tech isn't capable.
But again the reality is this is all a compromise until we can fix everything with a better UI at the bottom of posts. I'm not even sure we'll show vote counts by default but people will be able to easily click a button and see the vote count and the top votes (by absolute vote... meaning -2 is above +1 etc) And then see full list should be easy... as it actually is now.
P.s. we have individually responded to your requests and suggestions dozens of times in Discord... and then you stop talking and just do an attack post? Without even asking why. Your last time on discord to ask us for something was DEC 2020 but you used to be on there non stop asking for things... do you not remember how easy we are to work with and ask questions of?
I spoke with asgarth privately, but not enough to solve all my questions.
I did that by working with the ui trying to figure out my next move.
It seems that I was wrong about what the changes really were.
Ya'll have done a good job with this.
The votes are not hidden on another interface, they are still there, just in a different place.
I will make a post that makes it clear that I was wrong, and your design was a good one.
