Looks like you've got four nazi's so far who are cowardly even by nazi standards downvoting you.

    The funny part is that votes are public, to ensure they get counted correctly during federation.

    Its because we block lemvotes on this server, because people don't like their votes being exposed. Every server should do this.

    oh, okay. It's nice that it's possible to do this.

    Every server should do this.

    I would say that's for them to decide

    I doubt they've asked their users if they want this spying tool to hoover up their votes.

    Alright, let me ask you to clear this up for me please. I'm not a developer so I might need some simplification. This Lemvotes thing asks a Lemmy server to give up the users having voted on a particular post. For this to work I would assume the server in question must comply with this request, or store this information in a way that's accessible in the first place ?

    You can read the full context of this here.

    Votes are transparently federated, but only shown to admins via a few special endpoints, in order to fight one of the biggest spam vectors currently on the fediverse, which is federated downvote spammers. Lemvotes is a single user server / spying tool to circumvent that reasonable expectation of user privacy.

    no

    votes being public is good and helps find bad actors

    It's a UX issue. If you make votes public they should be very clearly so, the way reactions are on Facebook, LinkedIn etc, and everyone would be fine with it. What's getting people's panties in a twist is that Lemmy superficially presents itself as having anonymous voting but the logs are tucked away behind some convoluted process that you have to just know about and only seems to work about half the time.
