Looks great!I really enjoyed the text.
I agree that orange for upvotes seems odd. I liked the comment thread lower down with different colors for the levels of comments, that's helpful. Agree it could be a little bit tighter spaced but I don't hate the way it looks now, a little bit of real estate is nice on the eyes.
Good to hear that you liked it!
The upvote/downvote colours will change. As mentioned prior, it was honestly just my brain automatically assuming they're still orange/blue. It's hard to get that idea out when that's what you've seen for the last decade.
As for the comment threat, I've been debating the spacing internally for a bit. It's almost a verbatim copy of Apollo, since I think if there is one thing Apollo nailed, it was the comments section. Although I didn't really want to make things feel too boxed in. Sync has it very tight together and it feels very off to me. Apollo has them a tad shorter distance than this but also has shorter bars. I went for longer bars since it makes the rainbow look cooler. (sorry not sorry)
I did go for a bit of a real-estate focus for this. Social media can feel like information overload at times and I wanted to make it feel less like a barrage of information and more comfortable. I'll have to tinker with it and see what is a happy medium. The spacing was done very quickly and hasn't changed since the very beginning since I mainly wanted to get the view cards out of the way.
Appreciate the feedback though! Thank you.
