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

If your privacy is at risk in a place like Lemmy, you might be giving up too much private information IMHO.

Sure sounds like a lot of victim blaming to me. If someone upvoted a post in their city’s regional instance but never commented, it’s insane to me that a) that vote should be publicly viewable and b) people would blame the user.

That’s a fair point, but I still think it’s a very specific case. I believe it would benefit way more than harm the fediverse in general.

Like others have said, maybe do it opt-in, so each instance can choose whether they want to have it or not.

What is the benefit here in this case? Basically why do we care who upvotes or downvotes something that it needs to be exposed?

Opt in would be far more of a reasonable option .
