On Lemmy? This is the place that’s jazzed for GrapheneOS releases so they can degoogle their phone. We go on and on about private messenger apps, Proton, running non-corporate OSes, and privacy. Most of us are here because we don’t like the shitty direction Reddit is taking.
I think you can make the argument that generally people are ambivalent about privacy, but Lemmy is a definite exception to that rule.
Unless a person lives in a cave, there is almost no way around it.
