I think many of the UI ideas here are potentially interesting, but one major issue is the amount of space we have to work with. The design here is particularly cool because it’s a compass rose which matches the LW logo, but… I don’t see how we could fit a version into every comment that actually worked. (Maybe if it was little but got big when you hovered over it?)
(to be clear these seem potentially fixable, just noting that that’s where my attention goes next in a problem-solving-y way)
FYI In my mind there’s still some radically different solutions that might be worth trying for agree/disagree, I’m still pretty uncertain about the whole thing.

Yeah, the UI issues seem real and substantial.
In my mind, the thing is roughly as tall as the entire box holding the current vote buttons.
hmm, I could see that working. Click-target seems small-ish but maybe fixable with some-UI magic (and maybe it’s actually just fine?)
