    Oh good, Lemmy had no privacy. Not like that ability isn’t going to be abused.

    Either make it public right from the start everyone sees everything. Or make this crap not possible.

    You’re going to get echo chambers that start witch hunts. Someone is going to dox someone because they don’t like how someone votes… Yadda yadda someone gets swatted or someone just shows up… Then someone’s going to start cheering “We did it Lemmy!”…

    Honestly at least with Reddit you had one single evil entity that would abuse their power and trust of users.
