Do the "Was this post useful to you?" Yes/No link buttons on comment posts mean anything to a Stack Overflow user? I have been clicking them occasionally, then later checking my username history, but it doesn't seem they are recorded for reading to userspace, which I think would be useful itself.
Soluzione
They tend to get translated into votes of one kind or another but there's no hard and fast rules. There is a tool for high rep users (>10K) can use that has a mode for viewing questions where there is a disparity between the post score and the anonymous feedback.
I look through there from time to time (not particularly often) and usually act on a fair number of the posts, even if not all of them. I assume others do this too, so even if it's not directly visible it does contribute and direct attention to unsung or overrated posts.
