I saw a comment somewhere saying the title and had links but I lost the comment now. One of the links was going to raddle.me which is a Reddit like site

        They also run the project, unless someone is going to fork it. I’m not suggesting anybody does or being critical at all though.

    The political views of the main devs are controversial but it doesn’t really matter since Lemmy is free and open source. No one owns or runs it. Only lemmy.ml specifically is run by the devs.

        I don’t understand this question. This is a public platform, there are no secret messages or info. What do you mean by privacy? Hide what from whom?

          Look at my other comment with the link. It’s saying that even if you delete your account the only thing that happens is that you can’t access it anymore but every comment and data is still in the database

            What about The Internet Archive? Search engines cache? Copies made by other people? etc.

            This is a public platform; don’t share things you don’t want to be shared. You can’t truly expect anything being deleted forever everywhere.

              I mean, we can absolutely want that. And data farming is bad. Just objectively. Having a conversation in a public area irl isn’t consent to being recorded (not that it is always illegal to do so). And Why should it be on the internet? If the delete option doesn’t actually delete anything, it should clearly reflect that. I have no idea why you would argue against user control of their data.

                But you don’t need consent to record someone in public. If you want to have a private conversation, then have a private conversation. Having a conversation in public and expecting it to remain private is over entitlement in my opinion. You have absolutely no expectation to privacy in a public space, nor should you.

            If you don’t want it there don’t post it. The internet is scraped and copied and backed up. You can ask for it to be deleted but the company likely doesn’t own every copy.

    I haven’t seen that accusation. There are some communists but no Nazis that I’ve seen. And I’ll take a communist over a Nazi 200% of the time.
