Casual privacy is blinds in my window at night so passer-byes can't see in - and casually invade my privacy.
What casual privacy isn't, is a foolproof cage around my data...

I think at the very least, Lemmy needs to have better support for multiple alt accounts.
We don’t have a RES like equivalent yet, but at least the mobile apps are getting there. I miss Reddit Boost’s ability to hit comment and then pick an account to comment from.
that just makes spamming, vote manipulation, astroturfing, brigading, more easier.
It does, especially on foreign instances since they (supposedly) can’t see the IP addresses
But I think a balance is necessary. Some people will NEED privacy if they want to talk about things that they could get in trouble for (with work, school, or an authoritarian government). I had alts for lots of stuff on Reddit, like if I had a medical issue that was identifiable, or if I wanted to share some creative work I did. Others might need it to talk about their views on religion, their sexuality, or about friends/family.
I don’t see how lemmy would have better support, I suppose you mean the apps
The apps too, but it would be nice if the default UI supported it. Similarly, they don’t support having multiple accounts tied to the same email address (and I don’t think they’re going to do it anytime soon)

…and then switch to this instance without even leaving the page. It’s smooth as hell.
Liftoff handles this amazingly. I can comment from this account…
