I recently learned that voting on lemmy is not anonymous. Anyone can get information about who has upvoted and downvoted a post or comment.

In combination with your IP, this is a massive privacy (maybe even physical security) risk. Also, people can target you for your votes.

Sadly, this is something where I would prefer Reddit over Lemmy. Big tech scrapes data from both places anyways, at least Reddit is safe.

    I am a coward for having a different opinion and then putting it on display after being called out about it?

      having a different opinion

      By “having different opinion” you mean justifying Putin’s aggression? You have rightly been called out about it. I suggest you should stick to Lemmy.ml next time.
