Is there a way to unhide downvotes on posts? (lemmy.world)

I noticed that after switching to boost for lemmy the downvote count no longer shows and out of morbid curiosity I like to know the upvote/downvote count where it is tracked. Is there a way to restore those vote counts in the app?

I want to know this as well. This is the only reason why I often switch between browser feddit and Boost.

Weird, I can see all the up and down votes.

I've heard it's dependent on your Lemmy provider. But not sure

I just switched from jerboa on lemmy.world so its not the server doing it. I didnt touch any settings so this was the default

Try the one I'm using. I can see all the up and down votes

I tried it with lemm.ee, sh.itjust.works and db0. None of them shows the up and downvotes, it's not an instance thing.

Just to clarify: we are talking about showing the up and downvotes separately, as in 2 individual numbers, not just the sum of them.

Like this: 5 upvotes, 2 downvotes.

Oh okay. Yeah I dunno I'm sorry

If it was an instance specific issue it wouldn't have worked on jerboa. The fact that it did and no longer does, means that it is boost causing the issue.
