I have an issue with Fediverse, Lemmy to be exact. The platform is allowing an outside tool that was built for a mod or admin of a community to see votes, how people vote, but it is being exploited by users to spy/dox/harass, gang-up, and use as a tool to exploit other users nefariously. The tool is called Lemvotes. You can access the portal here. Here is a quote from a user (go $fsck yourself @ lemmy.world) who exploits this sharing how to use it with other users;

There’s a few ways of seeing votes. IMO they should be visible all the time. Moderators can see the votes of posts and comments in the subs they moderate. Admins can see all votes federated to their instance. Users have to use a separate tool for it. In this case I used Lemvotes.

This tool, imo, should be banned, or the platform to be “patched” to only allow this to work for admins, not users who abuse it.

Haven’t found any list, but here it is noted a few items and timing;

When do Aldi’s summer savings start?

Aldi’s price cuts began June 5 and will be valid through Labor Day.

The price cuts will likely save shoppers about $100 million – similar to the amount of money shoppers collectively saved with reductions last year and more than the $60 million shoppers saved in 2023. What are some products at Aldi that will be less expensive?

Clancy’s: Chili Lime Potato Chips - was $1.89, is now $1.79. 
Friendly Farms: 2% Ultra-Filtered Milk – was $4.39, is now $3.89.
Millville: Protein Pancake Mix – was $3.79, is now $3.49. 
Mama Cozzi’s: Mini Pizza Bagels – was $6.29, is now $5.99. 
Summit: Popz Prebiotic Soda - was $1.59, is now $1.49.

It is almost as if …hmmmm…they are working for the very people they regulate? Say it isn’t so. 🤔
