Yes, BUT I think they only count if your home instance is properly federated with them. If that connection isn’t there, it’s my understanding that your upvotes are only visible to those in your own instance.
I think you can, actually. One instance can have an entirely separate comment section. It’s almost like the users of one instance are shadow banned from the other.
Actually, I think I’m a little wrong: that happens when one instance BLOCKS another, and then you’re commenting on the blocked instance from a THIRD instance? It’s all kinda complicated and I’m not sure I grasp it fully.

Surely you couldn’t be viewing the post while logged in to upvote if your instance wasn’t federated…

It’s a common misconception, but you can view any post in the fediverse. You are not able to interact with any defederated instance.
