So, Lemmy is a better place?
Depends on which instance you use for your client, I would say. For me only discuss.tchncs.de gets to see my IP address, and Milan Ihl, our admin, as well as his Lemmy server, are in Germany.
This means two things:
But I've probably doxxed myself with personal stories. Pretty sure a dedicated person could find my employer, the team I'm in, and my age.
They would find out that I'm a violent and dangerous criminal with bipolar disorder.
This is why you change accounts every few months
Well… it’s all public anyway so no need to make a request. Just scrape it.
Purge the Butt Pirate!
Is there an easy way to purge a Lemmy account or do you have to edit/ delete each comment and post first?
I've had issues with deleting posts previously and just resorted to editing them to be useless instead.
