Take this post for example: https://www.reddit.com/r/northernireland/comments/1ll6ocg/see_it_say_it_censored_kneecap_is_not_the_story/

Speaking from experience, people in Ireland are overwhelmingly pro-palestine.
There is this user in the comments: https://www.reddit.com/user/EntireCourage308/
Its a nearly year-old account, it started posting about a month ago, it made some innoculous posts, then pivoted to posting far-right misinformation in the r/northernireland subreddit.

There’s loads of other accounts just like it.

    Thank you for your patience.

    Everything is public, including votes.

    I have yet to figure out how that works. Does Lemmy offer a way to look at these things? Like who voted?

    Instance admins can notice if a lot of signups happen from a specific ip, email pattern or region.

    The same goes for, say, reddit admins.

      Admins can see who voted on what, as can moderators.
      Instance admins would be less stretched out than reddit ones, since people are split across instances.
      Instance admins also have motivation to remove them, as bots make money for reddit.
