3 months agoLemmy is already a privacy nightmare, in some way. There was a comment showing the screengrab of those peiple who upvoted and downvoted a post. Basically, if you self-host an instance, you’ll have access to these. This can easily be weaponized by certain organizations that want to create profiling of lemmy users, e.g NSA and Intelligence agencies.
I expect that for posts but not for votes. Inherently, we don’t want our votes to be public - that kind of defeat the purpose.
