just wanted to ask this bc lemmy supposedly has public upvotes/downvotes and I don't know if kbin has it too

Same. I also like how they don't push comments down the page.

People are going to use it as a disagree button, let them do it publicly. If you don't want other people to know you downvoted something, it's probably because they made a good point that you don't like.

I agree with this. I think if you don't agree but don't feel so strongly to let others know you disagree, just skip voting.

With that being said, something people should consider are the bad-faith actors who will track communities and harass individuals who engage in downvoting -- this is something that will indeed be a problem for more hot button issues or politically motivated posting.
