I woke up today, to a public comment in a Lemmy community asking a series of tagged accounts why they had downvoted certain posts

I thought that reactions to posts and comments are anonymous and now I don’t really know what to feel about Lemmy any more.

In this case I had downvoted a poster because of its design, but was confronted publicly for being racist because the person assumed that I downvoted the message on the poster

EDIT: changed the title from “How” to “Why” because it broke rule nr 5 about it being a support question

    The Fediverse is open, everything you do on here is fully public.

    It’s why I prefer it over reddit, where who knows what really happens with all the vote manipulation and brigading.

    To answer your question, it is all listed alongside upvotes on the posts if using mbin.
