Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say
Question I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts on possibly making votes public. This has been discussed in a lot of other issues, but here's a dedicated one for discussion. Positives Could help figh...
Probably better to post in the github issue rather than replying here.
You're viewing a single thread.
I really don't care about what any of you think, so go for it. Perhaps better discussion will come from it. And I'd like to block users with consistent negative behaviours.
The problem is if YOU choose to vote something, and a powermod admin dislikes your choice, they can, and do, ban people from many communities on that alone.
Admin can already see your vote.
Totally. And I find their chasing of voters distasteful. A user has the right to use the tools afforded them. There are no rules about voting, if they expect a certain behavior, they should remove downvotes entirely.

This is where I'm at it with it. Votes are already public to those who really want to see them and that cat's not going back in the bag. Anyone that goes out of their way to inject it into the conversation is showing their ass and adding a (likely extra) level of toxicity that blocking would fix.
They can already do that and you have the modlog to prove your innocence.
