Allow being able to see upvotes and downvotes separately

[DraconicNEO]

I think it would be very nice to be able to have the option to see upvotes and downvotes separately like in other Lemmy frontends since Lemmy provides this data and people might want to have the benefit of seeing it. Obviously it won't be important to everyone, that's why I suggest making it a toggle in the settings page.

here is a comment from a Lemmy thread supporting this request and giving historical context:

Btw, old reddit used to display the exact upvote/downvote counts (“x upvoted, y downvoted”) for posts AND comments in the “title” attribute of the total number, visible as a tooltip when hovering the mouse over it. All that “x% upvoted it” for posts and removing the counts entirely for comments was nonsense pushed through by the previous reddit jerk CEO on 2014-06-18 against all community opposition (what is it with reddit and dumping unpopular changes in June?).

If you gonna recreate old reddit, please do not include these later CEO meddlings in it! One of the best features of lemmy is the display of exact counts (which was also a major advertised draw of voat.com and raddle.me before it). Let’s keep that in!
