Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this.
A few days ago my main account ( @irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) and a few of my alts were banned for vote manipulation. (https://lemmy.ca/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=20988171)
While i did upvote 2 posts with the alts, they were both by a friend, and I knew the posts were going to get downvoted anyway. I have since removed the votes (that i know of).
There could be a few posts I upvoted by mistake on an alt without realising I already voted on it.
We live in a time where vote manipulation is becoming the downfall of democracies. Any manipulation of a voting system is unfair and misleading regardless of the amount of false votes. Trying to fluff it off as a non issue is just as bad. If votes can be fake then they mean nothing at all.
