off-topic: I'm around HN for >10years and I vaguely remember a UI change where I could not see some voting counters any more. How do you know if a comment has been voted or downvoted?

When I first replied to the parent comment, it was gray text -- HN's UI for "this comment has less than one point". I couldn't tell you the comment's score right now. It doesn't look like hn.algolia.com has comment scores anymore either.
I remember that UI change. At the time HN was really starting to look like it was getting gamed, with comment scores having too much influence on popularity. HN's response to hide scores seems to have helped.
