I googled this, and one of the top results gave me the impression that they are not private. I just wanted to get confirmation one way or t’other if possible.

      No, they’re not private at all, the federation shares anyone’s activity so instances can be in sync, and they need to share everything.
      For example looking at the logs of my instance I see this one

      {
  "id": "https://beehaw.org/activities/like/<uuid>", 
  "type": "Like", 
  "actor": "https://beehaw.org/u/<user>",
  "object": "https://beehaw.org/comment/<id>", 
  "audience": "https://beehaw.org/c/<community>"
}

      Edit: I misclicked and replayed to the comment instead of the post 😅

        While this is shared between instances, I have not been able to find any API endpoints that would specifically allow to display posts you have liked/disliked.

        Have you had any luck finding a way to pull such data?
