Lemvotes isn't foolproof, and just because something isn't complete doesn't mean it doesn't have it. Although Lemvotes is another good example of how baseless the "voting privacy" argument is.

If I propose Mbin, it's because between Lemmy and Piefed it has the most voting transparency, it doesn't have to be perfect. I'd rather advertise instances that move towards it than those that move away with it due to ridiculous concepts like "voting privacy".

To put it in the words that can illustrate the ideological hypocrisy surrounding it better, it is essentially a tool of the "bourgeois" to obfuscate general access to the "proletariat" of the user base. People have enough power to pseudonymize their votes to anonymous accounts, so it is a testament of insecurity to try to use dark patterns to hide access to it when it is readily accessible through sites like lemvotes to even the most hostile of parties. The sky hasn't come down because these sites exist, and rather than the issue being the small minority of the people who might abuse them, I suspect it might be due to the insecurities of the people who downvote frequently or purposefully.

Outright lying doesn't really befit you. It is at a bottom of a sidebar, which is well above the bottom of the page even when it isn't loaded in a separate frame. And again, whataboutism. If it can be criticized, maybe it should be brought up, but to me, the sidebar is an acceptable compromise.

You seem to have a beef with anything that does not prop up piefed honestly. You "agree to disagree" that just because something doesn't have all of that could facilitate X it can't be better at X, and you seem to be running towards "catch-ya" whataboutism rather than just being able to consider whether even though something isn't ideal, it might be better and more focused than something else. Are you personally involved in the piefed project? It's just odd for someone to seem that invested into dismissing any other preference over it. I personally don't use it as much because I prefer the topics platforms like Lemmy headline, but that isn't going to stop me from promoting Mbin specially where its absence as an alternative has been noted. Not sure why someone would be a proponent of the Fediverse and hostile against more alternatives.
