Nice. Another suggestion is to randomize message order (so removes top voted bias) and to perhaps un-gray downvoted messages.

- freedomben 3y agoIt would be fascinating to see some data on grayed messages. I know in my case I look for them so that if I feel they are unfairly downvoted, I can vote them up. I would bet 50% of them I end up voting up, usually because they were downvoted for having an unpopular but not invalid opinion. If there is anybody else out there like me, then the gray could be a net positive because it prevents unfair downvotes from killing a comment unfairly. But I could also see myself being in a minority and the effect of the gray is compounding. So seeing some data would be really interesting.
