- logicallee 10y ago...which is now not a problem.
- IanCal 10y agoIt's not as much of a problem, but if people are regularly trying and failing to perform the action they want it's a UI wart.

- mistermann 10y agoAccidental upvote is a possible wart, collapse on the right is a guaranteed wart. When in doubt, stick with already established standards.
- ihuman 10y agoReddit does it that way, and I haven't seen any of the developers complain about accidental votes.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoBecause accidental votes are not a problem when you can undo a vote, which is now possible as well.
- LeifCarrotson 10y agoAs it stands, I have already accidentally clicked "ago" and gone to a comment permalink when I wanted to collapse a thread. Not much better.
- kbenson 10y agoSince collapse persists on page loads, hopefully it is better now. Then again, we can un-vote now, so I think we're back to having the behavioral advantages and disadvantages being close enough that it's a toss-up what any particular user thinks is more of a problem.
- bduerst 10y agoWhy not double-click the comment body to collapse/expand? or maybe some other behavior that isn't creating a click minefield.
- davidsawyer 10y agoI feel like it would be worth the trade-off.
- losvedir 10y agoBut at least now we can undo upvotes/downvotes so it's not as much of an issue as before!
- bdcravens 10y agoI've used HN Enhancement Suite for a while, and that really wasn't a problem.
