a.k.a. the 90–9–1 principle. Does the Fediverse follow this rule, or are there more creators here as early adopters? Are you a creator, a participator or a lurker?

Then why close it to admins? Just make vote history public, period. And make it very clear that everyone can see it.

The biggest problem that I have with it currently is that the vast, vast majority of lemmy users, whether it continues to grow or not, will not know about it. And many of them will use usernames that are identifiable, thinking that as long as they don't say anything controversial, they can't get into hot water with their govt/church/family/whatever.

just be careful when upvoting your unicorn bukake fetishes if you’re embarrassed about it

Sorry but this is just trying to trivialize a very real issue. If this is ever going to be a place for serious discussion and not just memes, puns, and repetitive jokes, then we shouldn't dismiss real privacy concerns by acting like anyone who has them is just embarrassed of their silly fetish.
