I’ve been sent this article about privacy on Lemmy and I would like to have more opinions about it.
I come from the Matrix world where there is no history deletion neither but at least everything is encrypted.
Can we hope anything about privacy on Lemmy ?
Especially with all the attention it’s getting right now.
Since Lemmy is free software, can someone just fork it and change it to be more privacy-focused?
It can, but without E2EE nothing is private. You can be sure that stays encrypted and only the other person is able to read it.
Someone definitely could, but what privacy-oriented features would even be useful on a social media site, aside from encrypted DM’s?
