Upvotes seem to just federate as likes and dislikes.

    I’m not sure about the downvotes part (i failed to recreate this lmao) but you can already view upvotes with mbin. Piefed solves this problem with a option to make your votes private but only with untrusted instances (but from my tests it didn’t work? weird)

      IIRC, piefed’s private votes are disabled for “trusted” instances. You can see which instances are trusted here.

        Ah, well that sucks :( i thought it just used a different strategy to do so if it was trusted, not outright disable it.

        Will correct it, thanks

          IIRC PieFed’s method is to send the upvote using a second random username not connected to your username.

        That is stupid and defeats the point and makes me rethink my decision to support piefed.
