I was about to say, it's the same system Reddit has just about, except instead of a corporation having your data, it's just some rando with a server.
I haven't dug into the Lemmy system at all, but would it not be possible for the server owner or other users to run a lemmy version of reveddit? Might not be a system by default, but I'd assume any system with direct access to the data can copy it over to a 3rd party no problem.
That always confused me as a child, since it was super easy to just test it for yourself. Turned out salt tasted salty regardless of where on your tongue it was, the same for the rest of the flavors.
But at the same time, deflating the sales of the product has the risk of prompting the company to not continue with a franchise or employ those developers in the future.

Yeah, that seems like it would have too much perverse incentive for admins to ban users they don't like, both to remove them and get money for doing so.
