Votes on direct links don't count in terms of article ranking, but they'll increment the upvote counter which could cause bandwagoning.

Since this submission got to #3 on the front page, there are likely enough authentic upvotes. Again, it's an algorithmic gray area.

Besides not counting on the rank, do they also trigger some king of red flag?

They would be exceptionally easy to trigger by a nefarious actor.
