Warning: Lemmy doesn't care about your privacy, everything is tracked and stored forever, even if you delete it
raddle.me

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

    Will write a longer post later, mobile killed my post three times by now… Anyway: doesn’t work that way, GDPR stipulates that consent must be defined and limited. “Unlimited” card blanc consent is not possible. And the initial data processing facility is still liable for the agreement.
