minus-squareSorteKanin@feddit.dklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-22 months agoPiefed’s experimental mechanism isn’t truly anonymous. For instance I’m pretty sure you’re the downvote from PieFed on my comment. You can still figure out who is behind votes by examining the proxy voting actors and their voting patterns. But it’s probably close enough. If you wanted to share only an aggregate with other instances, that would require activitypub changes.
