[Poll] What should be Lemmy's default way of displaying votes? (take.quiz-maker.com)

We're adding the ability to customize this in the upcoming release, but I'm wondering what people think would be a good default.

The 4 pieces of showable/hideable info are: Upvotes, Downvotes, Score, and Upvote %.

In Jerboa, I had a temporary default (until the next lemmy release), of Score + Upvote %, but people seem to dislike this a lot.

I'll check back on this in a few days to see the result.

You were right about score + ratio, and the complainers are a vocal minority.

I'd thought that originally, because a lot of former reddit (now lemmy) apps use score + ratio, but it seems like people really do prefer the simple very old reddit style of upvote + downvote.

Either way it'll be configurable in the next lemmy update.
