Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if this started happening at Lemmy too. Its a lot easier to control what kind of content is on a platform when you do something like this.
Now, I don’t particularly think this is a good idea, but I can see the benefit of this as well. People have the freedom to upvote whatever they choose, even if I think they are dumb for doing it, and they shouldn’t have to worry about anyone other than law enforcement or lawyers (in extreme edge cases) using that information against them.

You missed the Vegan Cat Food Wars then.
I must have. What happened?
One thing I like about lemmy is you can still upvote ‘removed by moderator’ comments and I always do because it’s funny
and you can view the comment in the modlog.
This wouldn’t even be possible on Lemmy.
Right now maybe, but Lemmy is open source, and anyone could fork it to add this functionality.
Yeah only per instance though, upvotes and downvotes are already public information so it wouldn’t take much for an instance admin to implement
