The fact that the devs even considered this is a bad sign, IMO. How out of touch does one have to be to think this is a good thing in any capacity?
Disagree. They showed their arguments, and those seem pretty valid to me, even though I disagree. IMO being open, transparent and promoting community discussion is a good sign.
How so? Most social media shows who liked stuff, it does make sense to consider it for lemmy.
Most social media is garbage for reasons including that.
a lot of software dev people are incredibly naive when it comes to how human beings interact and behave.
their biggest mistake is often they assume other people are chill nerds like they are...
Please realize that votes are effectively public already, just not shown in the Lemmy UI.
