I wish my votes were even more public. If I’ve taken the time to downvote your bullshit/nonsense, I want you to know it was me. Same with upvotes.

How private do you consider your votes in the Threadiverse?
From the technical side anyone can spin up their own Lemmy instance and view all votes, but I'm curious at what the community's perspective on how "private" that is. I think Mbin already shows upvoters? Piefed allows anonymous voting. I also know there are sites which show all voting history, but assuming those are fairly disliked.
My general questions to the community: - Do you expect your votes to be private, or just not shown in the UI? - Would per-voter votes showing up on another aggregator platform bother you, even though your instance already shares them with other servers?
For context I'm the dev doing some two way bridge interop between atproto + Threadiverse, in atproto the votes/likes are generally publicly accessible, you just look at the users repo through something like pdsls.dev, they're readable and archivable by anyone. In my opinion this isn't that big of a problem since it's fairly hard to look at and discern (Ex all my votes: https://pdsls.dev/at://did:plc:lmdkqemqrqnfiix72pyjhfey/social.coves.feed.vote). Ultimately trying to figure out if there's already a mutual understanding that they are public and we can just mirror them or whether they should stay hidden as an aggregate.
Nothing like helping your elderly mother with a new tech gadget to remind you of just how utterly awful the entire experience of using new tech is. The metaphors and idioms and icons and processes we all grudgingly put up with in our daily life are completely baffling to most everyone else and doubly or triply baffling to people entering the mental decline stage.
@bigzaphod @blogdiva Have you tried using Assistive Access? It's a life saver... or it could be if Apple gave it any attention and hadn't left it to rot into buggy, not-fi-for-its-purpose worthless crap.

It means the project may be vibe coded (LLM generated with little to no verification of what the output is); meaning it’s a lot more likely to contain security vulnerabilities and privacy concerns.
And that’s ignoring the ethical concerns of using AI in addition to the lifespan of the project (vibe coded software often isn’t maintained very long).
But nowadays it’s more secure to use Claude to check for those vulnerabilities. The main downside is you don’t know how your project works/structured so you have no clear vision of the whole picture and future plans.

Moderators can also see votes on posts in their communities. I assume instance admins can do the same for everything.

They’re not private at all, I’ve never been under the illusion that they were.
I like it, have some guts, stand on business. If people want to downvote they should be willing to attach their name to it, internet points are fake anyway.
Meh just kicking back refreshing the RNZ results page on repeat while trying not to get a stomach ulcer
there are software engineers who were not alive when peripherals weren't USB
@fluffy I'm in this toot and I don't like it.
Wohoo, jag somnade före 1 inatt och sov till 7 imorse.
