    This is completely unrelated but I’m also curious while you’re here, what happens to our sign up data / how secure is it? Im slightly worried about pid on me in a lefty space these days.

    Stupid me didn’t use a throwaway email or anything (can’t even remember if it asked for an email). I should prob just make a new acct

      As secure as I can make it on a shoestring budget. Basically unless we get targeted by a nation-state, you should be fairly secure. If OpSec is a concern, I suggest deleting the account and making one on a VPN using a throwaway email

      Admins can see your email upon registration. So if you’re really paranoid make an new account with a decoy email.

        Is that actually true? I mean it would make sense but I’ve seen the applications interface before and it had no way to see the email, you had to go into the DB to see it.

        @[email protected] is this still true, does Lemmy let you see email on applications? Or does seeing them still require going into the DB. If it does would you mind DMing me a screenshot of my application so I can see how different it looks from last time I saw it (0.18.4)?
