is there any other social platform that hasn't always done this?
What platforms hide your likes?
lemmy, reddit, youtube
Lemmy technically doesn't hide your likes - the interface might not show you, but all your likes are public in the Fediverse. Kbin, when I used it, would show which users upvoted/downvoted a post. That's important because it means researchers and OSI people can still do fact finding - Twitter doesn't like the idea of having to be open even if it's a requirement (albeit to researchers specifically) in the EU now.
