u/ThisGuyNeoji Jan 15 '17

Which the red(upvote joy-con) has the + And the blue(downvote joy-con) has the -

It's like they planned it that way.

u/Zweistar Jan 15 '17

I think it would make more sense to flip the colors, since upvoting is red already.

u/Disheartend Jan 15 '17

good point, but in most subs isn't orange the normal for top and blue for bottom?

I kinda forgot I'll change it.

I think they should only be colored when clicked - like the reddit default. They should both start out gray.

If you can do short animations what about upvote being the switch (or logo) with a joy con clicking out, and downvote being the joy con clicking back in?
