MODERATORS
I am discussing possible implementations with someone, pointing out that necessarily votes are public to at least someone. Not endorsing it.
If you read my closing paragraph you will see I come down against private votes.
I don't know if it's intended but you're coming across very aggressive and I don't feel there is cause, even if I disagreed with you.
I'm used to pinging everyone above me, consider it a general addition to the chat in the entire thread. Seeing people actually hashing out completely anonymous voting, making this flimsy platform even more vulnerable to manipualtion by petty psychos like myself, makes me even more pessimistic about people's ability to learn from experiences with open source social media projects that imitate features which only work for corpos
The weird thing about this whole debate is it's already public, just only to an elite of people with basic technical skill and some cash to burn + all their friends.
I'm half tempted to spin up a server and just post the votes of everyone who federates to prove the stupid point.
