MODERATORS
I very much agree with your diversity sentiment, but this part is just not possible right now. The underlying protocol (ActivityPub) just has no mechanism for private votes.
Yeah. I guess we shouldn't expect that to change any time soon?
If that's the case, maybe public votes is the best way to go.
As far as I know, there are no plans or proposals for private votes at the moment and most implementations don't seem to mind that votes are public. So no, I don't think ActivityPub will have any support for private votes in the foresseable future.
