Hey folks! Just realized something that makes Lemmy different from Reddit. Because of the federation, your votes are not technically anonymous on Lemmy. At least, I think....
Does this apply at all to Lemmy users, or is this just internal?
But then again, we all have anonymous usernames, which can be different over several account… if you care about privacy that much.
I don’t mind if cellar dwellers knows my username or e-mail, I get so much spam either way.
Oh, and regarding upvoting/downvoting, it’s only a bad thing if the admins actually would care and then start to sell user information like any other big corporation does.
