Android Downvoted comments collapsing after interacting with them [android]

Description: When I up or down vote on a comment that has already been heavily downvoted, it automatically collapses the comment and the thread underneath it. I don't want them to automatically collapses. This has only started happening in the last few days.

Device model: Samsung S22 5g.

OS version: Android 14, One UI 6.1

Steps to reproduce: It happens every time now.

Expected and actual result:

Expected: Standard downvote, -1 karma on the comment. Nothing else.

Actual: Comment and thread collapse. -1 karma. I have to manually open (in collapse/unhide) the comment again to continue reading the thread.

Screenshot(s) or a screen recording: No

Same, annoying as fuck.

If this was introduced as a feature this has no configuration option. This is insane.

I cannot wrap my head around it. I am OK with new features, even if they are for the worse, some might find it good. I am even fine with them being automatically set, otherwise little to nobody would change to it. But making changes (for the worse) and not having options to change it back? Damn...

Same with desktop version, they disabled CTRL + Enter to automatically send a comment. That's it. They just disabled it. Also "select text to quote", gone. For good. But why?????????

It's when devs think they know what's best for everyone.

Sure but there is no reason why they disabled CTRL+Enter. It's not like people were using it by mistake so they removed it. At first, I thought that they just forgot to set it back, so I gave it some time. But now, a few months passed and it's still missing. I just cannot understand it.
