Is this the typical behaviour of fediverse users? Posts in Apple and Nintendo communities immediately get downvoted by people disliking the companies. Can’t they just block the communities? (media.piefed.social)

I'm on Beehaw. I don't see down votes. Blissful ignorance.

    I don't think you're wrong about the tradeoffs, I just think the tradeoff is worth it.

    What if all votes were hidden? You could still press the buttons and it would affect the sorting, but nobody sees the number.

    Votes are public as far as the API is concerned and there are tools to show you who voted in what way.

    making them unavailable by the API instead.

    Votes are available via the API. There is a setting to limit it to your local instance. By default, they federate.
