A bit ago I posted on reddit about how gameboys (handheld console) were getting more expensive and Scalpers were making it worse. For a bit the post maintained in the double digits with the occasional scalper downvoting. I went to bed and the next morning- Boom. I had been spam downvoted by people who’s main activity is on Scalper subreddits and marketplaces.

      I might not understand your post, it doesn’t federate but it has accountability? what do you mean by that

        @Pika I think they are referring to how votes are public on Kbin so we can all see who upvoted or downvoted a comment.

        They are in Activity Pub too it’s just Lemmy doesn’t have a function for seeing them.

          Fun fact! You can actually see them in the modlog. I believe so, when I was a lemmy.world staff member we were able to see who did them.

        If you are on kbin you only see kbin upvotes and downvotes.

        It also lists the upvotes downvotes and shares
