I recently learned that voting on lemmy is not anonymous. Anyone can get information about who has upvoted and downvoted a post or comment.

In combination with your IP, this is a massive privacy (maybe even physical security) risk. Also, people can target you for your votes.

Sadly, this is something where I would prefer Reddit over Lemmy. Big tech scrapes data from both places anyways, at least Reddit is safe.

    Who’s ‘bent out of shape’?
    Having to vent his little frustration from NATO fascists losing the war in a totally unrelated discussion about up/downvotes.
    Go cry somewhere else.
    Or better go volkssturm and go to the Ostfront like your example from the 1940.
    You will be dealth with appropriately there.

        Another original banger from the nazi.
        Yawn.
        Go volunteer then to the Ostfront like your WW2 heroes so can you get what you deserve and I don’t have to read your boring drivel.
        I’ll piss on your grave later
