i thought the votes didnt matter on lemmy
So, you don't have a karma total, like reddit. Your individual posts/comments still can be downvoted, which limits their visibility.
Karma doesn't matter, votes do since it allows boosting or limiting post reach, so vote manipulation for the purposes of stuff like astroturfing is still a concern unless we want to kill every sorting option besides New.
