Well, you CAN participate, subscribe and read the community of another instance. You don’t have to be part of the other instance to do so.

Just make sure you are browsing / searching all and not just local.

I am reading and writing this from kbin and not even Lemmy btw.

I can verify myself using my Id card and a terminal or via NFC. The app used is the middleware between software or website requesting verification and my ID. No data leaves my ID in direction to the software or website. The middleware just gives a thumbs up to the verification request.

If you’re still able to post on reddit then it would be nice if you could tell him.

For kbin it is:

In the Terms of Service it is shown the deleting your account all of your data is gone.

In the privacy policy it states that the servers are in Germany so GDPR is followed. It does not track nor it uses JavaScript.

So what’s the problem here?

I don’t think that your concerns will happen. As the fediverse could be easy replicated and it is no problem to run an own instance federating with whatever you want AND be part of the rest.

My guess is that we will see more instances with different tastes if I may call it this.

By using tools like kbin you are also free to assamble the fediverse you want without the need to follow a single instance only.
