I would like it to be opt-out because years of Sync for Reddit taught me "orange is upvote, violet is down vote and red is hide" when using swipe to vote/hide.

Yeah omg this is fucking with me so bad. I may as well let Discord update at this rate!
Inverted vote colors don't even make sense! Up is uncreasing temperature i.e. warmer color.
Ideally there'd be a config option to switch, but if I had to choose one I'd like Sync to follow the lemmy color scheme.
Test
Those look slick!
Personally, I want a way to reverse the vote colours on the buttons...
I think this should be an option, but I'd also retain classic Sync up/down colours too for those who want to stay with it. I'm not sure I could ever get used to blue being an upvote, but I get why some might want it to.
Design language wise, it would make sense
no
As long as the blue/red colors are different enough from the current colors, that'd make it a less confusing change. Even if the colors don't change, I think it's best to match Lemmy's setup.
I think they should. Would be nice if you could change the app icon and then the upvote/down vote colors and then give the option to reverse the upvote/down vote colors.
I would like to express my support for this proposal and cast my vote in favor of it.

It sounds reasonable, yes.
Why not both?
Yes please
I'm indifferent
i don't care but id love to be able to filter out image posts also I love you bb
Yes
Yes please!
Can you give a mockup of the logo with red?
If you look at the "about" page for this community, the community avatar is blue=up and red=down, but a bit lower is the red=up and blue=down. That's what I see, at least.
Edit: 
This would be nice!
Yes
Default should match the platform, but the option is nice to have.
Yes, lemmy colours should be the default. Perhaps give an option in the settings for people that want the alternative colour scheme.
Ah, so this is what it is! I was wondering why the colors were wrong. Why must every new platform change it?! At least I can change it back.
~~Anyone know the color codes for the original vote colors? I tried color picking from the (old) logo, but that doesn't look correct.~~
Edit: I'm dumb. The swatches are right there.
I was against the change when I read this post, but now I have to say I love the ice blue color on the AMOLED black background. Nice.
