Maybe there’s a logical reason behind it, but I always fear I’ve accidentally downvoted someone when I haven’t.

    because voyager is based on Apollo for iOS and that’s how christian had his app colors. i didn’t even know reddit used orange / red for upvotes till this post lol used Apollo for way too many years

      Did it? I used Apollo since release and my upvotes were always orange/red and downvotes blue. I even went back and looked at saved screenshots just to make sure I wasn’t crazy.

        Yep same here just checked google to see if I was crazy, upvotes were orange. My email app and Apollo had collapse/archive swipes in opposite directions so instead of collapsing a thread I’d upvote the comment all the time, can’t forget the giant orange bar that showed up

      Not on my iOS at least. It was always the opposite of here in Voyager and I’m still always confused.

      Was this something Christian changed at some point or that followed some theme settings, making the experience different between users?
