A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

... okay? But if i subscribe to every lemmynsfw community, but never post to them... you'd have no idea.
With your own instance, looking at the instance list will show them all to anyone.
If you are the only user on an instance, your subscriptions are the only ones federating over into the server's All feed. For example, even if you haven't posted in all of these communities, is this not essentially your personal list of subscriptions?

That's precisely the issue I'm talking about

Oh that's interesting. I guess when your instance creates a local copy of the post, it would also add the corresponding community to the list to match.
