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
Is it the same for Lemmy?
Or for Kbin users when they visit Lemmy?

That’s interesting, I didn’t know it, it could also be a bit dangerous for toxic users.
indeed. I dont thing this is sane. At least should be optional
Exactly.
what ever it is, I dont like it. Nutters will find all ur history and chase you all over the fediworse for stupid reasons. We need some anonymity pls
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.
You can see the information through kbin but not through lemmy that I know of. So for your comment it is https://kbin.social/m/youshouldknow@lemmy.world/t/82174/YSK-You-can-view-upvote-and-downvote-information-through-kbin/comment/347422/favourites
