Ask HN: Hide the Disklike Button on HN

2 points by amir734jj 4y ago ↗ HN

I just passed 500 reputation mark on HN and now I see disklike button on the comments. I use my phone to browse the website and the like and disklike buttons are so close to each other so I'm worried I accidentally dislike a comment when I meant to like it. I'm wondering if there a way to hide the disklike button altogether?

You can always "undown" or "unvote" if you click the wrong one. I have not had a significant issue on mobile that I feel the need to hide it

Look at: https://idownvotedbecau.se/

Personally I don't take them to heart. I often see people ask 'Why was this downvoted?', and I get that. There are comments on here that are blatant troll-like remarks and don't add to the conversation, so it's obvious why some people get downvoted. Boggles my mind that insightful, constructive comments are downvoted though.
