    As long as lemmygrad is able to federate with other instances, it will always be possible to use neglected or private instances and do this kind of thing. It’s a risk inherent to the fediverse.

        Looking at the types returned from the API, this would be a nontrivial task. There are 2 types I’ll call your attention to. First is PostView:

        export interface PostView {
          post: Post;
          creator: Person;
          community: Community;
          creator_banned_from_community: boolean;
          counts: PostAggregates;
          subscribed: SubscribedType;
          saved: boolean;
          read: boolean;
          creator_blocked: boolean;
          my_vote?: number;
          unread_comments: bigint;
        }
        

        The second is PostAggregates:

        export interface PostAggregates {
          id: number;
          post_id: PostId;
          comments: bigint;
          score: bigint;
          upvotes: bigint;
          downvotes: bigint;
          published: string;
          newest_comment_time_necro: string;
          newest_comment_time: string;
          featured_community: boolean;
          featured_local: boolean;
        }
        

        You’ll notice on the PostAggregates type, the only information on votes are upvotes, downvotes, and score. The only information you get as to who voted on what is my_vote on PostView. Since these types are what end up getting sent to the frontend, showing who voted on each post to everyone would require work on the backend as well. If you’re interested in seeing it added as a feature, you should open an issue on lemmy’s github.

        Honestly I don’t see a reason to not implement this. Other ActivityPub projects show a list of who repeated, favorited and reacted to a post if you click on it and many Internet forums I’ve come across do the same.

    Maybe OTAN boy got pissed about being banned on sight and organized the mander/beehaw/sopuli trolls.

      Lemmy.ml should grow a pair of balls and defederate from those instances, they’re reddit 2.0,ive read a thing yesterday about how on beehaw they can bane everyone they deem “not nice” lmao

        Yeah those are not much better than wolfballs, and they also use bans in purely reddit way:

          lmao that comment is fire, also demostrably true, i guess there’s a revolving door between reddit mods and sopuli/beehaw mods just like the famous revolving door btw corporations and the state department

    We can’t fix the downvotes that were already sent out, but if you see this happening on a post that’s younger than this post https://lemmygrad.ml/post/644372, then report it with the little flag icon please
