Comment on Upvotes and downvotes are public information on Lemmy
dan@upvote.au 1 day agoVoting is meant to be anonymous (like irl).
Says who? Voting/likes are public on a lot of social media sites. The only mainstream ones I can think of where it’s not are YouTube and reddit.

The thing is they make it extremely clear that votes are public by letting you see who voted right next to the button.
Lemmy hides this feature and most users don’t know about it.

Yeah, I agree that this isn’t ideal.
