    Lmfao no. Use a vpn, rotate your username, dont use personal emails.and definitely don’t get a .world account.

    Use Lemmy.org. No emails needed. Don’t forget your password.

        Each instance admin can check a box to require email. It reduces spam accounts and reduces work for admins because users can perform password resets themselves.

        Each instance admin decides whether they require an email. Mine doesn’t, but it’s more important to choose an instance with admins you trust and not located in the US.

        Don’t use your real email regardless of instance.

      You don’t need an email with lemmy.org? what is wrong with the .world accounts?

      How does one go about finding and installing a vpn on a computer and phone connection? Because half the vpn’s are themselves spying on users and selling the data to brokers I’ve heard, which rather defeats the purpose, especially as the government buys all data broker information.

        .world should be considered the US government. The mods and admins are more or less government simps. They are AT BEST “center” politics.

          On one of those I did notice that they didn’t allow people to post, I think it was just for the articles their preferred accounts posted or something. That was one of those world news ones.

            Yeah they get very fussy and egotistical. The sort of people who were hall monitors as kids and never let anyone get away… except for their friends. Like the actual police. ACAB.
