    Votes are public as far as the API is concerned and there are tools to show you who voted in what way.

      I’m aware of lemvotes.org. However, I think this should be part of the default interface, for everyone.

      In Lemmy currently this feature is exclusive to comms you moderate:

      Sadly I don’t expect anything similar for PieFed. I really like plenty of its features, but when it comes to vote visibility it’s going the opposite direction - making them unavailable by the API instead.

        Votes are available via the API. There is a setting to limit it to your local instance. By default, they federate.

          That’s a rather recent change, isn’t it? From what I remember the votes were cast by alternate profiles, so even if you tried to grab them from the API you wouldn’t know who voted on what.
