I have create an issue with your suggestion: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2316
Comment on Viewing votes

With Mastodon and Kbin I think you're right, but I thought Lemmy deliberately went back and populated it all. I literally just federated https://lemmy.world/c/callofcthulhu@ttrpg.network to test (it wasn't on lemmy.world until I searched it) and it arrived with all the right scores. IDK if that means vote identities go over though.
That's a very good idea!
Yeah! I think so. It might be worth a post to a wider swathe of the community.

I checked the votes of the most recent post and I do see votes from lemmy.world, so it was already federating!
I also tested just now and I no longer see “0” votes, I do see a single vote (from the original poster). So that did change, but the score remains “1”. You can see:
mander.xyz/c/onewheel@lemmy.world
lemmy.world/c/onewheel
Since I am not confident I can code this myself, at least not quickly, I think it is better if I make a GitHub issue for it.

That's so weird. In your example it's clearly working the way you say, but I could swear I've seen it auto-populate a new community including scores. IDK, maybe I am wrong; I might do some testing on creating-for-this-testing communities just to investigate more.
That's awesome. Yeah, I think this would be a good thing. I asked about doing the same for mbin since I may be switching to it, but having it in all similar-to-Reddit platforms seems to me like it'd be a good thing.
