Reddit taught me to never trust a silicon valley, centralized, proprietary service on the internet with my data and/or content
Well you shouldn't trust a public, decentralized, open source personally hosted service either.
I don't really know who's hosting the Lemmy or other fediverse services I use and what access they have to the data that we post on there.
Basically, you shouldn't trust any online service with your data and your posts.
You...you realize you just posted right?
Just because you shouldn't trust them doesn't mean you're not allowed to interact with them. It just means you need to be careful.
