Are there any that take privacy and security seriously?

Unironically this, if you couldn’t possibly trust any Lemmy admin with your data. Host your own single user Lemmy/mbin/Piefed instance and you set the rules. If you can trust a cloud VPS provider then use that, but if even that is too risky in your view, then self-host. Note it costs money and you will have to put a lot of effort to safeguard yourself from spam attacks and info-stealing.
Using someone else’s server means ultimately entrusting your information for safekeeping with the admin. I’m not that paranoid but it all depends on the tradeoffs you want to pay for.
