    I’m not sure “downvote” should be included in Opt-out. Some instances allow a poster to see exactly who downvoted them. If someone is saying something obnoxious or repulsive enough to consider reporting, there’s a good chance they’re doing it on purpose. I don’t need to be on their trolling shit list.

      Source or example? 😧 This is new to me.

      Encouraging downvotes was a suggestion from the mods, but I will take this into account.

        kbin is the first to come to mind.

        Look at any post or comment that has downvotes. Click “more”, choose “activity”, then click “reduces”.

        Edit: I replied before seeing that others already had. Whoops!

          Ooh thanks for the step by step. I was able to identify the one kbin user who downvoted me over the past 24 hours. 😜

          Yeah, given this I won’t recommend that kbin users downvote just anything since the platform doesn’t protect their privacy. Lemmy users should be good tho. Thanks! 😊

        Kbin is an example. But just due to the nature of the protocol, it has to be stored somewhere but Lemmy also just lets admins view all the individual votes directly in the UI.

          Thanks for the example.

          Kbin users seeing who downvotes their posts is potentially an issue, but I don’t want to discourage downvoting bad or harmful content for just that reason. The end goal is that bad content gets removed and offending users acted on. So if a Kbin user is abusing the system to harrass or abuse, they should likewise reported and banned.
