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

    That’s why you rewrite your old comments to actively steer people away from the site. ASCII rocket ships, Lemmy links, etc

      That’s what I was thinking, do someone know if Reddit keeps logs or something?
