Upvoting is a client-side script already.
Are you sure? With JS disabled, the vote arrows are simple links for me that work as expected.
That's a perfect example of graceful degradation / progressive enhancement.
A JS event on the html element cancels clicks on those links and handles them in JS with AJAX so the page is not reloaded.

People switch accounts you know, I had to switch account after people set up downvote bots on my account when I had downvoted comments within minute from posting.
What's the motivation behind such thing? Why bother setting up bots for downvoting accounts?
(FWIW I often get upvoted within seconds of posting)
Off topic, but I’d love for HN to have larger buttons on mobile. Particularly the up/down vote buttons. I have to zoom in to press which makes it the only site I regularly interact with that requires this.

You need high karma to have access to the down-vote button.
I know you need karma above 500 for downvote button (I have it), I am complaining about existence of this button, it should be removed for everyone, it doesn't really help anything besides silenting opposing views/opinions going against HN hivemind.
> In the past I've had to logout when the comment count gets too high. Never experienced this in years. Everything seems same as always. Still unreadable flagged/downvoted comments, still too small font, stil Downvote button, still Flag button without requiring public reason.
