Recently there have been multiple downvotes on comments such as those talking about Uyghur Zens made up nonsense, information on Ukraine war and nazis etc, before there was just 1 downvote but now it happens to have as far as 6-7 so it’s not just one anymore(which was possibly Wisoncom).
What is up with it?
Liberal coping strategy
probably just lurking angry libs, wouldn’t worry too much about it as long as they’re not spam downvoting into the negatives
Votes are public so it could be found out if we cared enough
votes are public?
No they are not. Admins can see them, users cannot, therefore they are not public.
But anyone can create a Lemmy instance 🤔
It’s public to nerds, dedicated trolls, and soon Facebook too cuz they’re gonna federate with us.
Facebook thankfully won’t see them as long as we make sure to defederate when they come to the Fediverse.
Libs from lemmy, they do occasionally see our posts. Lemmy also working like shit lately and weird, my 4 month old post got pushed to “hot”, and it wasn’t exactly hot even then (it should be though, Zelensky calling for WW3 is kinda big, even though he was most likely high).
Yeah I’ve seen a 23 day old post in hot 💀

they’re probably from libs that came here from reddit
Since we federate with other instances with lots of libs and and glowies they will see out hot posts in their feed. Their coping mechanism when they see anything negative about Ukraine or positives about China their only recourse is to downvote. I also wouldn’t be surprised if there we bots programmed to auto downvote any Ukraine post made on lemmygrad. Those seem to be the most heavily attacked posts.
The current wrecker has 7 accounts
If you see a sus new comment with exactly 7 upvotes, that’s the wrecker
Lul, imagine of putting that much work just to downdoot.
