Has Summit ever considered potentially adding an upvote ratio or sentiment indicator feature — similar to how Voyager displays it with an emoji face and percentage (e.g., “98% 😀 ”)?

The emoji itself changes depending on the score — e.g.

😀 or 😺 for highly upvoted posts

😐 for mixed votes

😞 or 😡 for heavily downvoted ones


It’s a small touch, but it gives a quick visual sense of how well a post is being received without having to look at the exact upvote/downvote counts. It also makes browsing feel a bit more engaging and informative at a glance.

Maybe it could even be optional in settings (e.g., toggle ratio indicator on or off).

    Not sure how I feel about the emojis but if it’s an optional feature I guess there’s no harm.

    Summit already has an option to show upvote percentage.

    At some point I was considering making it be colored or something. I can add this to the roadmap.
