Just wish there were more transparency around counts and content engagement.

I firmly believe most influencer these day were propped up with payed views and botted engagement. Not that lemmy is the same but it all feels so dirty.

    I don’t have a strong opiniion on the matter, but it really seems like it would encourage stalking and revenge-downvotes.

      The thing about any stalking and revenge downvotes is that everybody would be able to immediately see exactly what was happening, due to the added transparency. Rules could very easily be made against this. So, when I see this argument it strikes me as a bit of a red herring.

      What I think is really going on, is some people want to be able to stalk and downvote bomb without being recognized, which the current system allows.
