Hard no. I'll move on like I did a year ago from Reddit, and I was on that site for 14 years.
Just from a political/nation-state viewpoint, it would needlessly expose information to make it easier for countries and political parties to keep some kind of "social score" and decide when to do something to you. China already does this kind of stuff.
We need to make it easier for everyone/anyone to do this? Think about all of the super-divisive issues at hand. People can already get a sense of your views from your responses, and that should be it.
Just so you're aware

I'm not sure what this is supposed to tell me, sorry man.
That yor votes are already public.
If you open via browser, it linked to this post but in Kbin, there you can find your comment and click "More" then "Activity", click the "Favorite" tab and you can see the people who voted your comment.
Edit: to clarify, kbin already have that ability to see upvote(favorite) and downvote(reduce). I think admin also have the ability to set the visibility of downvote because i used to use kbin to check for random downvoter before admin here get the update for the function.
