No, votes should not be displayed public.
Blocking those who downvote creates further polarisation, echo chambers and an environment more hostile to discussion and honest exchange.
Following those who upvote creates personality cults and nepotism and devalues the content.
Those can be argued away replaced in the long-term, but garbage trucks are awful: intermittent hydraulic whining combined with fast and wonky plastic sounds combined with truck stop and go sounds…
