Groups are already named ~group, what if there was a group named ~420 about marijuana? I think the name 'votes' is just fine for now. It's clear, concise, and gets the job done.
you're right, it would be confusing. I only thought about it because of how much the vote buttons blend in with everything else, at least on solarized dark theme.

I just really like that we can't down vote. A real problem with Reddit is the fact that people down vote simply because they see a negative number.

~23 means "About 23" it would kinda be confusing for new users
but wouldn't that work even better if vote fuzzing is ever implemented?
also the ~ is in reference to how you specify the home directory on unix, to me ~23 looks like ‘home/23’

Can we have a dedicated thread or area for suggestions like this? So many pop up, this could easily be a comment on a larger thread.
