Generally, I like it.

One bit of feedback is that you’re using the same (or at least similar) arrow for upvoting as you are in other places to collapse a thread. And I found that confusing.

It seems a little redundant to include both the upvote arrow, and upvote by swipe.

But looks great.

Regarding the arrow, what arrow are you referring to for collapsing a thread? There's no arrow for collapsing. You collapse comments by tapping on them. The arrow on the comment is for up voting which can also be done by swiping on a comment. Am I misunderstanding the issue?

I’m referring to the arrow where I’m a goof and didn’t pay close enough attention to how I was using the app! :)

I’d have sworn when I hit the arrow the comment thread collapsed. But when I read your reply and went back in to try, you’re clearly correct.

Thanks for clarifying.

Actually I think you are right too. I think it has to do with the upvote button’s hit area being too small so sometimes it overflows to outside the button and collapses the thread instead. I will see what I can do to fix it.
