Do upvotes/downvotes persist across clients? (lemmy.ca)

I keep seeing posts without upvotes/downvotes in my feed that I am sure I've voted. It's possible that I voted them on a different client on my phone.

I would think that this persists across clients/pages, is this not the case?

Yeah, that's what it feels like for sure. I would hope that eventually the API responds with my vote status too to all clients.

Total speculation. I just assume the implementation tries to avoid users querying the source database for every single users vote status. At best I can see it increasing the count, decreasing the count or denying those.

Fair assumption
