I would like to just say that in Firefox 4, none of the vote links (for article or for comments) work at all.
Aside from that, I feel that Recent Comments and Recent posts sections are completely useless. (Why would I want to see recent comments. And there is a page for Recent posts.) That whole right sidebar is pretty useless overall, except your own user status.
I also use the recent comments sections often - in fact, it's how I found this comment, by way of seeing Swimmer963's in the recent comments section. I actually use the recent comments section more often than the posts lists; it's a good way to see what's being discussed, which is a reasonable proxy for what's worth reading.
I use the recent comments section all the time. If I've already read all of the recent posts, I'll click on the recent comments and see if there are any I want to reply to. That feature is one of the things that actually allows discussions to start in the comment threads.
They work for me in Firefox 4 (Ubuntu 11.04 32-bit x86 distro build).
I use the tag cloud and the recent posts sidebar, and periodically look nervously at the top contributors list.
:) You seem to be pretty safe. But, yes, it seems like enough people use the sidebar to keep it around. Perhaps the recent comments could be shortened (to one comment per 3? lines), where you only see the full comment when you hover over it.
Also, I wasn't suggesting removing any of the sidebar features, just moving them somewhere else (bottom?).
