This is a weird take in this context. It's a platform for hosting open source software. There is no privacy to speak of, the whole point is that it's out in the open
Now using it for enterprise or a private repo is a different discussion, but it's not clear that that's what's we're focused on here
Yep you're right. And I've discovered that, in order to see posts from a community, at least one user in your instance needs to be subscribed to a community to view it.
Would be nice if someday the browse functionality provided by some sites was integrated into Lemmy but for now I had to go through and manually subscribe to a bunch of things.
I'd use a scraper but there's a lot of content I don't care to see right now, and I'm assuming subscribing comes with a small storage cost, so may as well avoid it for now

That name was taken...
Do you know how much data is put onto the local device when subscribing to all these communities? Ballpark is it in the MBs? GBs?
Trying to determine whether discovering things I don't want is worth it
