Lmfao no. Use a vpn, rotate your username, dont use personal emails.and definitely don’t get a .world account.
Use Lemmy.org. No emails needed. Don’t forget your password.
You don't need an email with lemmy.org? what is wrong with the .world accounts?
How does one go about finding and installing a vpn on a computer and phone connection? Because half the vpn's are themselves spying on users and selling the data to brokers I've heard, which rather defeats the purpose, especially as the government buys all data broker information.
I'm new to Lemmy. Why does Lemmy.world require an email and Lemmy.org doesn't? I assumed all the Lemmies and Piefeds and whatnots required an email.
Each instance admin can check a box to require email. It reduces spam accounts and reduces work for admins because users can perform password resets themselves.
