RE: Have there been more downvotes since the button was relabeled and moved?

I will get to this later, but I think the renaming and positioning wasn't to encourage more downvotes but rather to normalize the convention. I think the suggestion for discounted downvotes is what is needed for an increase.

Thanks for the analysis.

The general sentiment about downvotes is still negative.

Once we got discounted downvotes and people start using them more, I hope others will get used to it.

Yes fair enough, 'normalize the convention' :)

Agreed. How much for 'free' though?

I am not sure but I would say that 10-20% would be a pretty good indicator of how it performs in the wild.
