I actually like the idea of being able to see how many upvotes/downvotes came from specific instances much more than seeing the actual users. It would cover some of the positives mentioned in the github discussion:
-Could help fight bot and multiple-account voting (if we assume that people who make multiple accounts do it on the same instance)
-Could help identify voting-patterns from specific servers (obviously)
And then if something looks suspicious, the admins can already see who voted, so they could check out whether some user is abusing the mechanics.
I find that this approach might be worth talking about, but making user votes visible to all seems very unnecessary.

And Sweden for melodic black metal also!
Digamma was never pronounced as the sound 'f' according to that link. According to wikipedia, the first time Greek developed the labiodental 'f' sound was between the 4th and 15th centuries:
I came here to mention Seven Spires! After listening it through about 40 times, it is by far my favourite album ever, topping Solveig (for which I'm in a minority I think).
I like and liked a lot of bands, but only Seven Spires made me completely obsessed for 2+ years
