anyone can set up a Lemmy server
This is not the case. What percentage of the population could set up a Lemmy server, do you think? 1%? 0.1%? Of those, what percentage have the time to set up a Lemmy server? 1%?

Yes I know. Mbin and Kbin should be encouraged to change this.

Who are you to impose how others run their instance? Clearly this should be an option that each instance can set by itself.

Kbin/Mbin show votes too.

That’s way too much work. I just logged into my original account on kbin.social and tapped on the activity button to see votes before that instance went down. If I want to see votes again I can set up an account on any kbin or mbin instance in less than a minute and do the same thing.

No need for a Lemmy server, kbin/mbin put it in their interface

Saying the fediverse is good for privacy is just plain false, that’s the kind of information anyone can acquire, even an ad company. All they have to do is federate a silent instance and see all you do.
