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

I was of the assumption they were private. Please make them private then because I want no one looking at my votes
They can’t be completely private because instances have to share how many upvotes each post has. That’s a limitation of the fediverse, since everything is spread across many independent systems, data has to be exchanged across them.
As of now, they’re semi-private because end users can’t easily see who voted on a post/comment unless they manage an instance themselves.
I know the amount of votes has to be shared, but I don’t see why other moderators (hell, even mods of the main instance) need to be able to see who voted on what
So votes are not easily manipulated?
If they did that, anyone could spin up an instance and start just fabricating votes and there’d be no way to know
This would require a major change in the underlying ActivityPub protocol. This isn’t going to happen for years, if ever.
