I’m entering grey beard territory, been on HN for years, and I still don’t know what the [-] button does. Is it a downvote? Or does it just collapse the parent

I’m entering grey beard territory, been on HN for years, and I still don’t know what the [-] button does. Is it a downvote? Or does it just collapse the parent so I can read more without clutter? You’d hope downvote UI would be more explicit.

- soperj 5y agoYou don't have the ability to downvote. It's a down arrow right below the upvote (up arrow). [-] collapses the parent, you're correct. You can also unvote if you change your mind on your vote.
