mbin is now federating downvotes so now i can see how much of the lemmyverse ~~hates~~ disagrees with me on my home instance.

i know down votes are a contentious subject in some places, but i welcome them as useful communicative flags.

.. also seems to have cleared up the messaging queues handling the dropping of those federated votes. things are flowing better.

Hmm, so federated downvotes from Lemmy are public now on mbin, not just local downvotes and federated upvotes. Interesting. Does mbin-mbin downvote federation work? kbin doesn't federate downvotes to you. (I checked -- for science! -- but switched back to an upvote afterwards.)

kbin doesn't federate downvotes to you

Kbin doesn't federate downvotes to anyone. Our downvotes are only seen by each other.

i would expect mbin->mbin to honor the federated downvotes, assuming the newest version of mbin 1.30.current. definitely could use a good test though

not sure who knows or not, but the 'bins also publicly make available a 'reputation score'. aka, karma. so even if you think youre living a karma free life over in lemmy, its calculated elsewhere.
