Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say

Probably better to post in the github issue rather than replying here. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4967

I say yes!!

I have a particular set of people that actually follow me from community to community, just to downvote what I say and the articles I post. All because I posted an article about the Green Party to the c/politics sub. lol

So if you are determined enough to do that, then ya shouldn’t be upset that people can see what you’re doing.

Yeah, but then what?

So you have confirmed that you have a fan club that likes to downvote you. What would you even do with this info?

Once you know the accounts doing it, you can block them so they can't interact with your posts anymore.
I’m pretty sure that’s not how it works on Lemmy. For some reason “block” here is really what “mute” is everywhere else on fedi.
I’ve seen a few “There’s no record of this comment” and when I open up the thread in a private tab, it’s someone I’ve bumped heads with but don’t remember/care if I blocked them or they blocked me. I always wondered if it goes both ways, which it should, imo.
