This may look like a weird question btw.

I see constantly people here worried about digital security, I see people using Tor, deleting social networks, and just sharing the different levels of security that they use.

So I was wondering, how safe is Lemmy? Sure it doesnt collect info like Twitter and Meta does, but that doesnt mean its 100% safe. So what are the main problems we can have here? Is there anything the 3 letter agencies could exploit? Is there any preventive measures users could take?

    We would have moved the hosting to China to be completely safe but it was unfeasible at the time (need someone to speak Chinese and be able to make payments there which can be difficult).

    Would y’all do it in the present?

        We could switch at any time, but this host is fine for now. If we start getting some warnings from them for being too communist, then it’ll be time to find another host.
