Why wouldn’t it work? It’s just being a legal entity that rents the servers and hosts the instance, instead of a naturla person.

I don’t see any reason why it couldn’t.

No. In Germany we have something called gGmbH. It’s basically a non-profit Limited. But IANAL, no idea if and how this would be able to protect the admins.

One link in one discussion that slips through is basically enough.

Sadly, no. Just not enough content on Lemmy, yet.

As somebody who just uses the mobile site on Firefox, I didn’t really feel affected by the API changes (besides the fact that Reddit once again showed their ugly face). All the subs I care about feel unchanged.

Pretending to have committed a crime is a crime itself

Gotta listen to some Götz Widmann haha.

You are only truly anonymous if you always use a VPN or Tor. If not, Reddit has your IP and the ISP knows who is behind the IP. If LE knocks at Reddit’s door with a warrant, they will give them your IP, with which they go to the ISP to get your name.

they’re an underwater welder from a specific small town and they have three sons

You would be suprised of how much less info than that is needed to ID a person. There are studies about ID’ing people via their favorites and last-watched lists on netflix.

I like it! Main issue for me is that there is not enough content on my hobbies, and “all” content is mostly filled with reddit-this and lemmy-that (or now threads) stuff, which is annoying because I don’t want to talk more about the platform than actually using it. But I hope this will change with some time.

I use only the browser, UX and UI is pretty straight forward, but subscribing to communities of other instances is really weird. I need to copy the “handle” (i.e. !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml), and add it manually to my instance domain (i.e. lemmy.world/c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml), and then I subscribe to it. I don’t know if there are other ways (besides finding new communities via “all”).

I’m not into the technicals of lemmy or the fediverse, but I guess this is not easily solvable, as an instance doesn’t know that I am the user of another instance.

Arts (Printmaking, Graffiti, sculpture, calligraphy, typography, design), and all the SFW porn subs.

Also, I’m really amazed that https://lemmy.world/c/sourdough is already quite active.

So, how much do you spend, why are you doing it, and do you get any funding or paying this or of your pocket? (just trying to understand how the fediverse works)
