Comment on Lemmy votes ARE public, should they be anonymous?
CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 2 months agoThe same argument could be made about your posts. Maybe a user tends to post things that aligns with a certain group, just as easy to track that (if not easier) for targeting.
Not to mention anyone with the tech to do this already can by creating their own instance so they can view votes.

okay but you make posts with the expectation they are public. Votes only change a number, and are a way for you to show support/disagreement for something without broadcasting it to everyone.
If you want to broadcast it and make it public you can reply to a comment
