I just noticed this, apologies if this is an old change, but the up vote / down vote colors seem to have swapped.

It was jarring for me at first, but it grew on me very fast. Also, in my opinion, looks cleaner on dark mode

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

Yup totally agree about the dark mode looking better with blue!. I think if you're on Lemmy you should use the right color scheme as well

It makes more sense IMO, usually red is used for things like stop, wrong, error, bad etc. and while green is most common for go, correct, good etc. blue fits better as an opposite to red.

[–] lemmytry@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I disagree I figured red was heating up and blue was cooling down, regardless of how you interpret it though we all know why everyone is used to it being that way.

[–] Syd@lemm.ee 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Pretty sure the colors both changed slightly too.

That's correct, they used to be reddit orangered and periwinkle.
