One of my many admirers just went through literally every single post or comment I’ve ever made to downvote. Is there a way to see who it is and save them from having to see my posts in the future?

Also, is that how blocking works? I know that I won’t see posts from someone I’ve blocked but does it also stop them from seeing/interacting with my content?

    That data is available is the ActivityPub but as far as I know, you don’t have access to the vote data as a Lemmy user. You would have access to this data if you were running your own Lemmy server.

    But honestly, let it go. Someone stole fake Internet points from you. It costs you nothing but it cost them 5 minutes of their lives. You’re having a fight with some stranger that doesn’t value their own time. Value your time and stop feeding these kinds of energy vampires. You deserve better! Have a wonderful day my friend :)

      Thank you. It’s not so much about the fake points, but when people start to get stalkery like that it makes me uncomfortable. I guess I could try to stop having unpopular opinions but it doesn’t seem likely.

        If you think you are being brigaded you can talk to the admins to see if they can catch someone abusing the system, but otherwise trying to find the names of the people downvoting you is pretty stalker in itself. What are you going to do with that info?

          Obviously they just want to go through THEIR history and downvote all THEIR comments with a vengeance. Just like any emotionally stable adult would do.

            Lol, no it seems that I’ve misunderstood how blocking works on Lemmy. I had hoped to block them from seeing my content in the future since it clearly bothers them so much. From the responses here it seems like there’s nothing productive to be done.
