Edit: obligatory explanation (thanks mods for squaring me away)…
What you see via the UI isn’t “all that exists”. Unlike Reddit, where everything is a black box, there are a lot more eyeballs who can see “under the hood”. Any instance admin, proper or rogue, gets a ton of information that users won’t normally see. The attached example demonstrates that while users will only see upvote/downvote tallies, admins can see who actually performed those actions.
Edit: To clarify, not just YOUR instance admin gets this info. This is ANY instance admin across the Fediverse.
There are trackers though
It depends on the instance.
The point being raised is that because of the architecture even if your instance doesn’t use trackers any other instances can use trackers and track you as if you were on their instance. At least as I understand it. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Where? Not on my instance.
