Saw someone with their own instance say on another post (not on their instance) that they could tell that said post had 5 downvotes by users they had tagged.
Not sure that it’s true, but I do find it a bit unnerving. I was on (the now defunct) Kbin and the downvotes were public, which didn’t bother me as much because it was at least transparent/equal (though I also had someone pester me over a few votes spanning weeks on their just-them-posting-a-popular-comic place, said it was an error with their averages and then they still silently banned/blocked me after).
Votes are public, they can be seen across different instances, the only thing that’s unresolved is seeing them using the standard Lemmy software as a non admin user.
Well the information is out there in the wild for anybody with the know-how to access. Either via running their own instance on the side (doesn’t need any comms on it), or just via Mbin etc.
But you’d assume that the two managed by the official Lemmy developers, including the default one for web included with basically every Lemmy instance, would have the feature.
Not to mention, the dev in that GitHub specifically said:
I just added this to jerboa also.
So in theory it should be there. I just can’t find it. Unless it got pulled out at some point more recently…
it sounds like on a post/comment, you tap three-dots > Moderation > View votes
Unfortunately not. I havet he “Moderation” sub-menu, but it only contains “Remove Post”, “Lock Post”, or “Feature in Community” on posts, and only “Distinguish Comment” (if it’s my own comment) or “Remove Comment” (otherwise) on comments.
That community is on .world, which on Lemmy v0.19.3. Moderators there cannot yet see who voted.

First point is correct.
Actually, you can still use Mbin today to see upvotes on Lemmy communities

Moderators can’t on 0.19.8 either
It was added in 0.19.4

I know, but it still not being on the Lemmy Web UI makes it basically unusable for the vast majority of mods.
And I know about Tesseract, I was the one suggesting the change: https://feddit.org/post/6649095/4045658
How do you actually do that? I had a look in a community I mod, and I couldn’t find any way to actually do it in either Jerboa or lemmy-ui (web).
Not all frontends support it yet. I know Tesseract does.

And it looks the change was merged into main, so yes, I think it should be supported by the app: https://github.com/LemmyNet/jerboa/pull/1331
I am not a mod, so I can’t check, but it sounds like on a post/comment, you tap three-dots > Moderation > View votes
