Did you enable the option that hides read posts? For some reason it also hides posts from your profile

:3

Where did you get either of those statistics?

I don't want them to know anything that isn't completely necessary, and even that should be wiped as soon as it's no longer relevant. Why should I be okay with corps recording all of my online behavior and preferences just so they can sell that info for a bit of extra profit?

Lemmy basically mirrors entire remote communities excluding media in the local db, which I'm guessing includes mod actions. No idea why remote bans are also shown apparently, I'm experiencing the same thing

I'd also recommend reading this wikipedia article, there's tons of detailed info about the actual biology and side effects and stuff

I'm pretty sure that most lemmy instances run on a VPS, where the only thing you actually have to worry about usually is securing SSH, i.e. only using keys and setting up fail2ban. After that it's only a matter of securing lemmy the software itself, which is a whole other discussion.

Yeah you're right, I just felt the need to point out that API calls are not really comparable to serving a full website.

The thing is that when you interact with the remote server directly it's not 10 api calls, it's 10 full-blown HTML webpages that have to be served to you, which are way bigger than REST API calls.

None, selfhosted is the way.
