proposal concerning the SoloLearn app, especially in the field of up- and downvotes

Question

I have noticed that if you up- or downvote a posting, you can change your upvote to a downvote and vice versa, but it is not possible to withdraw a voting.
My rating could differ because of editing of post.

Practical example: a posting has 5 votes. If you upvote it, it gets 6 votes. If you change your mind and tap the opposite arrow, the posting gets 4 votes. It is not possible to go back to a neutral value that the posting has 5 votes again.

Could somebody of the SL-staff please explain this behaviour?

Answer 1

If you upvote and want to undo it, tap the upvote button again and it will go back to neutral. Works the same with downvote.

Answer 2

Hi Jacob,

thank you for your answer! It would have been so easy to find this solution of the "problem". I don't know, why I did not see this. Perhaps because I am from the last century....

Answer 3

Useful information. Who would have thought that a double upvote meant negation of the first upvote.

Answer 4

Jan Markus You're quite funny. Going through your questions and posts has been a humorous as well as enlightening adventure. 😁😁
