Does that mean someone from another instance that’s running on Lemmy also wouldn’t be able to downvote?
(Love this feature!)
My totally uneducated guess is that it works similarly to how instances with disabled downvotes work. The downvotes should work on the instances where they were issued. But they wouldn't federate to other instances.
My instance has a few communities with subscriber only downvotes and that's the result I've seen.
Good question, I haven't tested it to that extend yet.
@Snoopy@tarte.nuage-libre.fr IIRC you enabled that for !fediverse@piefed.social , have you tried downvoting from Lemmy?
Why would it mean that? Not following your logic.
They're asking whether this works between a Piefed and Lemmy instance, or only between Piefed instances
