Probably better to post in the github issue rather than replying here.

Piefed's experimental mechanism isn't *truly* anonymous. For instance I'm pretty sure you're the downvote from PieFed on my comment.

You can still figure out who is behind votes by examining the proxy voting actors and their voting patterns. But it's probably close enough.

If you wanted to share only an aggregate with other instances, that would require activitypub changes.

I didn't downvote you, but I also use the term pseudonymous for a reason

But if you use that term, don't say what I said isn't true.

Interesting that you said you didn't downvote me and then the downvote from PieFed I saw just before is gone hehe

Someone is having a chuckle
