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

    I think the same, but it won’t be fixed since that’s how activitypub works: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3291

    Kbin dev said it won’t fix this as it wouldn’t be easy (one user proposed to hide votes for Kbin when posts and comments come from Lemmy): https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/3

    The problem here is how Kbin handles the information obtained from Lemmy, I guess one way to solve this could be to block interoperability between Lemmy and Kbin.
