Or the technology could just share the information it needs to share and not everything and anonymise the data ;)
It does. If it “anonymized” the data before broadcasting it to the federation, usernames would not be valid across federated instances.
If I post on instance A as “John” but my username gets anonymized as “UserA893SAJ”, any instance other than A has no idea that that is John, and therefore it is just some anonymous user.
It’s totally possible, but that’s not what Lemmy wants to be
Edit: Yeah no, in cases where attribution is not necessary, like upvote/downvote, they really should be anonymized between Lemmy instances.
I wonder why it isn’t at the moment. Possibly just didn’t have the foresight. I could look into contributing that possibly if someone isn’t working on it already
Yeah. They don’t really mind Israel killing non-white people and also concentrating Jewish people under a single state https://youtu.be/N3Taq2bekjQ
