    Yeah, I agree this unwanted behavior of Lemmy. It’s a variation on ‘security by obscurity’. It’s ‘social security’ by obscurity. Except that it isn’t obscure at all.

    I didn’t know Kbin users could see the upvotes, but I’ve just discovered that kbin users only see favorites. Just like on Mastodon.

    Check out the Kbin page @banaflip@kbin.social shared in another comment. You can see who upvoted your comment under ‘activity’. If you upvote my comment, my comment favorite count increases with one. And you can see you are one of the ‘upvoters’ under favorites.

    If however you downvote my comment, one of the favorites appears to get removed. By you. Even if you didn’t upvote before. At least, that’s what I think happened when I tried this on another comment.
