    I was really on-board of the idea of Lemmy in the beginning. It all made a lot of sense, and I felt like a part of the community.

    But now it feels like its just an echo chamber of people, who seems to have very extreme beliefs.

    It’s starting to be clear that the whole “ML - Leninism Marxism” was actually a big part of Lemmy.

    I’m a centrist, slightly leaning towards the left, but I don’t feel like I truly belong in the demographic of Lemmy any longer. Reddit is starting to pull me back, and Boost still works, which only makes it harder to resist…










  • Yes, you are correct.

    If you’re using your aliasing-service to “blend in the crowd”, just like how TOR works, you may not want to use a custom domain.

    For me, the purpose of AnonAddy is first, and foremost, to help me combat spam. Any privacy improving aspects I see as purely bonuses.

    I will use the shared domains from time to time though, if I consider the risks to be too high. This goes from posting an email in a public forum, to signing up for a particularly suspicious newsletter for one-time benefits.

    As always, you should take your own threat model in mind.
