Aaaand I fixed it. The URL can be from any instance now!

Yes, but I just fixed it. Now the URL can be from any instance.
Clients couldn’t add it, they would need admin access to do so
I clarified it rn
They didn’t work because they’re not from the poster/commenter’s instance. As it says on votes.gregtech.eu, currently the URL has to be from the poster’s instance. I am working on a better way to do this.
Not unreasonable at all, I just suck at software development :3
I will try, this is my first serious project so uhh no guarantees :P
May I have the post URLs you tried so I can troubleshoot?
I think it can’t fetch votes from a non-origin instance, for now I will add a warning until I fix it
Now, could you just add a quick feature to read their minds and tell me why they down voted me? ;)
AI hallucinations as a feature :3
Yeah Lemmy should make it clearer that your votes are not private
I kinda have no idea why this doesn’t work @_@. The canonical URL does work though.
Thanks for the question, I believe the illusion of privacy is worse than the lack of privacy. Currently, non-technical users or newbies think that their votes are private, which they are definitely not. Someone could spin up an instance and see the votes, which users cast without thinking about how private they really are.
Huh, may I see the URL you used? And did you select the proper option (post/comment)?
I made this tool to check votes on a comment/post, and I am working on an option to see all votes a user has cast
I assume you tried the bridge?
There are better solutions to this, like TOR or VPNs, but still a cool project.
I’ll also add an option to check a user’s votes and votes in a community (if that doesn’t overload the API lol). There will be a post about this once I get to it
