    Thanks, that is good to know, but that is a type of evil where I would hope Lemmy doesn’t follow Reddit. I sometimes posted to Reddit but I more often read passively without logging in, partly to avoid some of the tracking.

      Sure. I think it’s good to be aware of for sure and I agree that it would be nice if Lemmy isn’t tracking as much. I also recognize that I’ve accepted a certain amount of tracking in my life over the years at this point.

        Tracking posts is understandable. Tracking up and down votes is iffy. Tracking reading is inappropriate and invasive.

          I don’t disagree really… Just pointing out that as long as you’re logged in Reddit has always tracked posts viewed as far as I’m aware… Facebook similarly tracks all activities and always has.

          These are obviously not models to aspire to but I think that it’s helpful to be aware of what we’ve dealt with up until this point.
