It also opens the door to more users obsessing/being confrontational with anyone who downvoted their comment(s). May send users off to downvote users comments for lurkers who rarely comment, which could shrink the population/activity over time.
Not sure where I stand on it, I guess if the info is there and will be used by others, it’s good to be aware
Unavoidably so but then again, going sideways because of a downvote is just more data on who you might want to block.
Agreed, the more I’ve thought about it I keep coming back to it being safer with all users knowing the data is easily accessible by everyone else. That will prevent users from situations as well where maybe they upvote something NSFW/controversial thinking what does it matter if they didn’t comment so no one would know it was them. Some time in the future someone may start aggregating the data to use to kink shame / call out people or such.
