why can't I view the number of upvotes a comment has? (it shows a dash -). I can only see the number of upvotes if I minimise the comment, which obviously is a huge hassle for every comment.

This is not the number of upvotes. It is the number of replies.

The dash is a comment thread collapser.

Comment upvotes are hidden to mitigate bandwagoning.
