That would require a major change to the ActivityPub standard, which is not easy or trivial. This is at worst infeasible to impossible, at best something that is 5+ years away.

This is not true, the piefed admin implemented pseudonymous voting agents in around 48 hours

Piefed’s experimental mechanism isn’t truly anonymous. You can still figure out who is behind votes by examining the proxy voting actors and their voting patterns. But it’s probably close enough.

I didn't downvote you, but I also use the term pseudonymous for a reason
