I’m fairly certain that I checked it out on Kbin.Social about a month or two back and it still worked then, but Kbin.Social is currently down for maintenance, so I’m not sure.
How long ago is “quite a while”?

Former Redditors are used to upvotes/downvotes being private by default.
But this really depends on the user. Most reasons for this would be privacy related reasons.
Some users vote differently knowing that their votes are public. If they want to vote freely they would consider an option like this.
To combat profiling from others/corporations.
To avoid certain users that take downvotes way too seriously.
That might be a setting specific to that instance. With other kbin instances it is possible to see reduces (or at least you have been able to do so in the past).
Maybe there’s been a recent update to all kbin instances so that the reduces tab is no longer clickable?
It doesn’t hide downvotes… It just calls them “Reduces”
If you want your upvotes/downvotes to actually be private, create a seperate account that only votes and never comments/posts.
Agreed. Traditionally, “gaslighting” is specific to cases where a manipulator tries to convince the other person that they are crazy over time. The end goal is to make the other person doubt their reality so much that they will only rely on the manipulator. Basically, it’s a conscious attempt to brainwash someone.
This comes from a story where a “husband secretly dims and brightens the indoor gas-powered lighting but insists his wife is imagining it, making her think she is going insane.” All so that he can steal from her. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaslighting#cite_note-8
Unfortunately many today misuse this term to mean something closer to the definition of “lying” or when someone is trying hard to influence you…
I thought I read something earlier today that mentioned that the current deal is that the hostages be returned and then Israel will pull out it’s troops.
Hamas wants to alter it so that they release a few hostages, then Israel pulls out, and then they release the rest of the hostages.
It sounds like Israel had already agreed to that deal so isn’t this in Hamas’ ball park to accept or not?
Then again it sounds like every time the deal is altered, the other side wants to male new changes,
As Blinken mentioned in a different article:
“At some point in a negotiation, and this has gone back and forth for a long time, you get to a point where if one side continues to change its demands, including making demands and insisting on changes for things that it already accepted, you have to question whether they’re proceeding in good faith or not.” https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-hamas-war-ceasefire-negotiations-ab6925549d8f523a6e5c61e88e7eec8a
Has anyone actually published the entire deal (at any stage) in its entirety so that everyone can see what is being debated?
Somewhat similar, this might be a fun thread to ask if anyone has experienced Synesthesia:
It also helps when the ears are angled in a way that makes it look like a unicorn.
The painting is protected by glass, so no damage was done to the painting.
I read through way too many articles that failed to mention this important detail.
Ah, thanks, I probably just checked the “favorites” recently and assumed the “reduces” were still visible, that or my sense of time is way off.
