    i think user total upvotes/downvotes is public, so people can check it out if that’s their thing

      I was told by an admin that admins can see what everyone upvotes and downvotes and that they’re going to give mods that access in the future.

        How long until people get banned from various communities for voting on something unrelated?

          Happens already. Auk on slrpnk instance has a bot that counts your upvotes/downvotes. And auto bans u based on the counts. Even if you’ve never been to his community

          Sorry, I’m not being clear. Not that you can see general upvotes and downvotes, but I could see everything you personally have upvoted or downvoted. So if someone in a community I mod is downvoting everything, I could see that and ban them.

          Edit: Or maybe you’re saying that I can do that there?

              I’m currently in tesserect looking for how to do that. I can’t even find the moderation tools, lol.

              Edit: Is there a guide on moderation for that template?

                I’ve seen a few accounts systematically any content posted to one of my communities without ever commenting. For weeks. I assumed they should probably leave that community if they don’t like it and banned them.

                  I think you accidentally left out the word “downvoted” in that comment.

                  I didn’t realize you could see them, one of our admins was doing that. Now that I know I can check, I’ll be doing the same.

      I thought it was a computed/estimated value rather than one maintained explicitly by the platform. Of course, with Federation, there’s multiple services running that might take different approaches.
