Besides it's a very important question for our privacy, I suspect some of my comments getting downvoted at set periods of time from other accounts. I don't understand how the fediverse work and what I'm asking is who has vote logs? Who I can ask, if a bot, like on reddit, got dedicated to downvote every post from one user. How to avoid vote brigading on here? Can it be automated?

I'm not pissed and I do know I post literal shit sometimes. It's just I'm wondering, if our fedieverse have machanics against that.

I agree that it is a limitation of the nature of federated software. All the same, it makes me nervous to interact. I would feel much better if it wasn't every instance owner, but just the owner of the one your account came from, or perhaps the one you were interacting with. I'm not anonymous enough to feel comfortable.
