MODERATORS
Lemmy (or Fediverse) is not private at all.
Its main appeal (at least for me) is the non-profit motive and censorship resistance, and that you can also browse it anonymously.
If you are getting IP blocked by your instance (server you are connected to), just choose another one.
Issue is with Countersocial, not Lemmy. Lemmy works fine
That's not true at all. Everything you actively send the server is not private but it's also not unnecessarily collecting all sorts of personal information or tracking you around the web.
What do you mean by private
