    Isn’t that privacy more illusory than actual? You’re not surfacing the web pages which show the votes, but the protocol is openly sharing that info and anybody can still see what your instance’s users have voted on just by looking at them from a different instance. I’m not going to out anybody, but it was trivial for me to find that thread here on kbin.social and see exactly who upvoted it, including a kglitch.social user.
