Hello,
Since your Lemmy posts, comments, related activities, and your basic profile information will be stored in the databases across the fediverse, possibly never to be deleted (or kept by somebody who can), do you:
If you feel that it is unnecessary, why do you feel that way? If you think it is necessary, why so?
Thanks. I am trying to get a feel of what I should do. For example, if my instance loses its data (due to a hack, sale, vulnerability, etc.), I am pretty sure all the information is lost (including my IP addresses). If other instances lose their data, or keep the data for their own purposes, then my posts/comments/related activities are lost (maybe excluding some of my profile information, my settings, and my IP addresses).
I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
I have questions about the native web interface.
What do you do to keep track of posts you have seen? i.e. You like the post, would like to see more discussions, how to keep track of them? On Reddit, you can click the Bell button and be notified/emailed about the follow-ups. On Lemmy, I've been hitting the save button to go back and look.
What do you do to keep track of comments? On Reddit, you can "Follow" the comment and be notified/emailed about the responses. On Lemmy, I can't keep track of them, except via the Save button for the entire post above there is a save button on each comment as well..
Thanks!
edited: there is save button on each comment.
Partial solution: use Save button for Post or Comment, and sort the comments by whichever way to let you see new/interesting comments.
