They really aren’t Here are yours :)
I think this is a huge problem but I also don’t think things are going to change
Yeah, that’s concerning. However after being on the Fediverse for a while, I understand that the freedom from corporations comes in a trade-off with privacy, and even if I’m not tech savvy I’m convinced this isn’t going to change. Maybe there should more understanding about this, and we should put online only things we are totally ok with being publicly available and share private stuff only in specific places such as encrypted chats
The thing is, what’s stopping Google or Meta from spinning up an instance just to profile you? They wouldn’t even have to embrace extend extinguish they could just quietly spin one up and start reading everything. I think the Votes should only be visible to the community mods/admins but that would require a change in how the whole system works and I don’t think it’s going to happen
