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.
Wow, that is something. People are so fucking touchy about this war. This extreme prejudice against people who are even slightly anti Ukraine are banned left and right, no nuance.
To be clear, I’m not against the Ukraine people, just their corrupt fascist government, just like us (the U.S.).
Thing is people often confuse criticism or opposition to any one side as absolute and unwavering support of anything the enemy does. Zero place for nuance.
