When I see the number of upvotes and comments, are they from the whole federation or just my instance? (lemmy.ml)

They are from the whole federation. (Unless you are in a community that has de-federated itself)

Supposedly instances can put it so there are no downvotes, only upvotes so i wonder how that works with this.

Also while i think votes should by default cover all of lemmy it would be cool to see instance and community subscriber votes seperately.

I have the same question

It flops back and forth. It tries its best to keep up, but at any given time it's reflecting ... some number of Instances. I imagine this will be improved with further development.
