Why YSK: your upvotes (favorites) and downvotes( reduces) are public information.
If you are browsing through https://kbin.social/ or whatever just click on “more” then activity.
There you’ll see info like boosts, reduces (downvotes), and favorites (upvotes?)
Works with all instances for lemmy or kbin material
Report harassment to admins. This isn’t Reddit. On commercial social media, harassment is just “high engagement”, and so there’s incentives to not immediately remove harasser. That’s not true here.
Trust admins to take out the trash. If they don’t, find a new instance with an admin who will and don’t look back.
Harassment can go further than just on this site, admins can’t do anything outside the media they control.
Public votes are a bad thing, some people are crazy or just assholes.
This will serve as a dis-incentive to participation and engagement.
