So blue for upvote, red for down and then an updated Sync logo.

I would like it to be opt-out because years of Sync for Reddit taught me "orange is upvote, violet is down vote and red is hide" when using swipe to vote/hide.

[-] Mango@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Yeah omg this is fucking with me so bad. I may as well let Discord update at this rate!

[-] aulin@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Inverted vote colors don't even make sense! Up is uncreasing temperature i.e. warmer color.

[-] eggymachus@sh.itjust.works 39 points 8 months ago

Ideally there'd be a config option to switch, but if I had to choose one I'd like Sync to follow the lemmy color scheme.

Those look slick!

[-] wahming 20 points 8 months ago

Personally, I want a way to reverse the vote colours on the buttons...

[-] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

I think this should be an option, but I'd also retain classic Sync up/down colours too for those who want to stay with it. I'm not sure I could ever get used to blue being an upvote, but I get why some might want it to.

Design language wise, it would make sense

As long as the blue/red colors are different enough from the current colors, that'd make it a less confusing change. Even if the colors don't change, I think it's best to match Lemmy's setup.

[-] cory_lowry@lemmy.world 11 points 8 months ago

I think they should. Would be nice if you could change the app icon and then the upvote/down vote colors and then give the option to reverse the upvote/down vote colors.

[-] Jeze@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 8 months ago

I would like to express my support for this proposal and cast my vote in favor of it.

It sounds reasonable, yes.

[-] kratoz29@lemm.ee 6 points 8 months ago

Why not both?

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 6 points 8 months ago

I'm indifferent

Yes please!

Can you give a mockup of the logo with red?

[-] mom@nom.mom 11 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

If you look at the "about" page for this community, the community avatar is blue=up and red=down, but a bit lower is the red=up and blue=down. That's what I see, at least.

Edit:

[-] lemann@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 8 months ago

This would be nice!

[-] KazuyaDarklight@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Default should match the platform, but the option is nice to have.

[-] aulin@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Ah, so this is what it is! I was wondering why the colors were wrong. Why must every new platform change it?! At least I can change it back.

[-] loobkoob@kbin.social 3 points 8 months ago

Yes, lemmy colours should be the default. Perhaps give an option in the settings for people that want the alternative colour scheme.

[-] aulin@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

~~Anyone know the color codes for the original vote colors? I tried color picking from the (old) logo, but that doesn't look correct.~~

Edit: I'm dumb. The swatches are right there.

[-] AstridWipenaugh@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

I was against the change when I read this post, but now I have to say I love the ice blue color on the AMOLED black background. Nice.
