Federated services have always had privacy issues but I expected Lemmy would have the fewest, but it’s visibly worse for privacy than even Reddit.
- Deleted comments remain on the server but hidden to non-admins, the username remains visible
- Deleted account usernames remain visible too
- Anything remains visible on federated servers!
- When you delete your account, media does not get deleted on any server
Damn, Raddle seems worse than Reddit when it comes to toxic attitudes. I never looked much into it since it’s just another centralized platform like Reddit with different management, but boy oh boy are those comments just awful. Great community you folks got over there 😬
