I enable the large voting buttons on both the full size and compact posts. I find I frequently will accidentally downvote a post when I am attempting to click through to the comments.

I think that when large voting buttons are turned on, it should disable being able to click on the vote tally area to vote on a post.

Thanks.

I think it's better if you post your feature request on the projects development site: https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/issues

FYI You can tap anywhere in the blue area to take you to comments. Should help you avoid that

From an interface perspective, what’s the advantage of leaving the vote tally clickable in when voting buttons are enabled?

[–] khannie@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

You're asking the wrong person. Maybe it's to leave the option for folks who switch hands but I'm not a UI designer, just offering you an easy solution to your problem (and not the one downvoting you).

Could use the swipes instead

You don’t click the title of the post to open the comments?

I don’t? ¯\(ツ)

Reaching under the post to continue on is more convenient as I’m not blocking the post with my hand.
