Please check my post, I think everything I said is very valid, but I want this community to see it too, and help steer the discussion, I think reddit is doing this intentionally.

I've also seen concerns about privacy and politics. It'd be great if you addressed that, too. I'd love to send you an upvote but I deleted all my accounts. ๐Ÿ˜…

I did address the politics, lemmy is open sourced and the politics aren't injected in the code, and if you can't deal with the politics, go to kbin. It'll still be federated, so, I don't care really, but I can't imagine leaving lemmy because of what the devs do in their free time.

Privacy is non-existent on reddit anyway, just because lemmy is imperfect there doesn't mean it's any worse than reddit, and this is a public forum, there's no privacy anyway.

I didn't see those. My bad!

Completely agree. Just look at reddit's TOS. They own your data. Unfortunately, it still doesn't stop people from raising ut as if reddit is a bastion of privacy and security.
