The devs are specifically working on a feature to get even more insight into this.

I think the idea is to make it easier to detect trolling/spam from certain accounts. But honestly, there’s no reason upvotes and downvotes can’t just be public.

Maybe; this feels like a “for the children”, or “because terrorists” argument.
If the whole shebang would be public i would be fine with it, but to me it looks like it will just be a crutch used to justify taking action against dissent.

Annoyed_Crabby,

I think the main complain anyone would have with this is, only we admin can look at the vote, and no one else can. This isn’t a problem in Kbin or any other platform that allow one to do so.

I only check the vote to see if there’s any brigading, other than that, i have no issue with other admins snooping or whatever. Ohh to be clear, all of us admin can see the vote everywhere, getting a new instance yourself will not solve anything.

A new PR allowing mods to see the votes was merged a few weeks ago.

The votes are public. Kbin displays them right in the UI. Lemmy semi-hides it, but it’s never been designed to be private in any way.

Changing instance won’t do shit if that’s a concern to you. As an admin I can see them even if my instance isn’t involved with the post at all:

So really, I just need to host my own instance to see votes. Nice.

Lol:

“All those account outside of monero.town are most likely angry commies that just follow posts from here to downvote.”

People outside my echo chamber think I’m an asshole, it must be a conspiracy!

We do see the votes. Publicly posting them sounds like poor form, but then what do you expect from crypto bros?

Pick a trustworthy instance or better yet, host your own.

Running your own instance isn’t going to hide your votes.

What’s the instance?

Or is it right in front of my face and I’m not seeing it?
