I read that if you author a downvote it is public information. What other information is public to the network? Are subscriptions public?

Nothing you do on the internet is private. You can remain anonymous on Lemmy by joining an instance that doesn't require an email, and not using your real name. That's as close to private as you're going to get.

I like lemmies approach of not trying to reinvent the wheel and just let people put their matrix usernames into their profile for secure communication.
