Kbin doesn’t federate downvotes from other instances though, so you can only see the downvotes made through Kbin. I believe for Lemmy, the only way to see the identities of voters is through direct database access. Maybe some third party apps show that though?
Doesn’t matter to me. I’m not wishing harm on anyone, whatever our problems are, assuming they leave me alone. Some people might be disgruntled if they were left in a bad position and then their ex does great. Others might think “hmm, we’d stayed together I could have benefited from a wealthy porn influencer lifestyle”. Personally I think if they can move on and be prosperous, great.
I’ve been to a couple places in Denver that do this and obviously it’s bullshit. Just raise the prices! Not 18%, though, they’re 5% and started when everyone felt bad for restaurant workers during Covid. At both of them they had a disclaimer “if you disagree with this charge, we will gladly remove it”… as if that’s a comfortable thing to do to save $4.
It’s also eating food in a social atmosphere without having to shop, prepare or cleanup.
That’s not the point though… it’s that everything is 18% more than advertised on the menu, regardless of whether the original price was high or fair.
I figured it was a conscious design decision. Maybe it just doesn’t work, idk. It’s kind of nice not seeing them though I am curious sometimes and will look on other instances.
