Lemmy devs are considering making all votes public - have your say (github.com)

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

I like the idea - if the lemmy devs do implement public voting I'd definitely move over. Not only does it maintain the (current) state of voter visibility, but it also protects from the frequently cited admin and kbin/mbin exploits. Trusting one admin is far easier than trusting every admin.

I was actually having similar thoughts after reading the post (forking lemmy) but idk if I have the time to run an instance.
