Which is kind of mandatory for how they've designed Lemmy. If you share upvotes between instances, then you've gotta provide sources. Otherwise it's too easy for one instance to manipulate all the others.

You could not share upvotes between instances, but that would really damage small instances. Imagine going to a small instance and instead of the Reddit front page you get the Reddit new page.
