Honestly, if security is a main concern for anyone here, you should run your own. Anyone can run any of this. Follow what you want, then all connections to Lemmy.world come from your server you control that you connect to. I’m on piefed.social, but I’m planning on running my own eventually.
The gamble of the fediverse is that you’re outside the realm of the blatantly bad actors like the Zucks and Muskerburgs, but you’re also off the edge of the map. No reason to believe that there be no dragons here. Anyone can run one, which includes bad actors. I wouldn’t be implicitly trusting that the hundreds of individual volunteers that keep the fediverse afloat all have good intentions. cough.ml serverscough

Your coughing might have caused you to not hear that those ml server folks literally wrote the software you are using…
the software is open source. we can verify it doesn’t do anything bad. the server is what you cannot trust.
False. I’m using piefed. Also, so what? Doesn’t make what I’ve said incorrect.
