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

I say no. Privacy.

Comments say they're already basically public. I don't know anything about that, but it's probably better to merely have a camera in your toilet than have a camera in your toilet that livestreams 24/7.

But I don't have an especially informed sense of how to run a platform so maybe there's a bunch of crap I'm not thinking about.

Agree. I may be misunderstanding something here, but to view votes one would have to spin up their own instance. This would prevent your average abusive moron from harassing users who down voted their post/comment.

Yes, I may be wrong, but spinning up your own instance would also let you see new votes from now on, not votes on old posts. Which makes it even harder for trolls and morons.
