What's a relation between trust levels across various Co-communities?
Initially I thought that "Trust levels" feature is independent for each CoDidact community.
But it seems that I was wrong:
When I joined to Languages and Linguistics
I was able to give an upvote for some questions & answer.
Is it "by-design", "bug" or maybe these restrictions isn't applied to new communities until they getting mature enough?

The prerequisites for various site activities (currently reputation, to be replaced with trust levels) are configurable per site. The difference you're seeing for voting isn't so much intentional as an artifact. The default is to let even brand-new users have a few votes per day, and that's the setting on Languages & Linguistics. A couple weeks ago our network was under an attack and we lowered that value on some sites to defend against a disruptive troll.
These values can be changed at the request of moderators. We didn't do a great job of announcing this when it happened, for which I accept responsibility. I'll point moderators to this post and let them know that they can ask to change it back on their sites (or change it to something else). Anybody should feel free to start discussions on site-specific metas about these settings.
