I don't think there would be a proper way to enforce it either. The whole idea is to be able to pack your things to any instance at a moments notice. Mixed with how there is no central record of accounts and their IPs and everything is so spread out, there is no way of knowing if someone is a sockpuppet or just a backup

Honestly, this is the one thing that makes me wonder how long Lemmy really has...

Propaganda machines and astro turf farms can essentially move the needle any time they want here. It's enough that I kind of want voting removed completely... It simply has no true validity on Lemmy.
