MODERATORS
The proposal is instead of federating each vote, each instance sends an anonomized vote count which is the total of their users. That and tokenizing users in vote objects. That and the piefed method: https://lemm.ee/post/40074176
Wait are those separate proposals? Removing individual votes vs tokenizing users in individual votes
The relying on instances to compile and anonomize votes is one proposal that would require a change in standards. The easy solution is giving every user their own "voting profile" which is a random username and handles all voting. This is what piefed uses and the admins are unable to see user votes, but can deanonomize users with enough effort.
