The 'SwitchPirates' subreddit is in Nintendo's sights.

    So, Lemmy is a better place?

      Depends on which instance you use for your client, I would say. For me only discuss.tchncs.de gets to see my IP address, and Milan Ihl, our admin, as well as his Lemmy server, are in Germany.

      This means two things:

      • You can shop for a location of home instance that you deem Nintendo-safe
      • Nintendo would have to multiply its legal efforts many times over and through different jurisdictions if they wanted to get all users of a community, which might affect their effort-value-considerations.

      But I’ve probably doxxed myself with personal stories. Pretty sure a dedicated person could find my employer, the team I’m in, and my age.

        This is why you change accounts every few months

      Well… it’s all public anyway so no need to make a request. Just scrape it.

          Is there an easy way to purge a Lemmy account or do you have to edit/ delete each comment and post first?

          I’ve had issues with deleting posts previously and just resorted to editing them to be useless instead.
