Upvotes/Downvotes and boosts being visible on posts. (kbin.social)

I don't mean the actual numbers. I mean being able to see who has actually upvoted, downvoted, and boosted a post.

I've already received one message from a user after downvoting their post because I felt the content was a little on the fence. This should not be a thing. I should be able to vote on posts without worrying about someone messaging me because they have a problem with how I voted.

In my opinion, this is a bit lacking for the safety and security of members here. (Or people who just want to lurk for that matter.)

It can also freely lie about how many votes things have received and there's no way for other instances to validate what it's claiming.
