> In this Techlore Talks episode, I sit down with Jose Briones to explore whether dumb phones really offer better privacy and how digital minimalism can transform your relationship with technology. Jose breaks down practical strategies for reducing screen time, the importance of device segmentation, and why mindset, not just hardware, matters most. Whether you're considering a dumb phone or looking to reclaim your focus, this conversation will challenge how you think about your devices.

I administrate a PeerTube instance (peertube.wtf) and everything is just much more complicated compared to a Lemmy instance.
One reason I don’t “auto-federate” is because there’s a ton of pirated and questionable content. So much content is in a foreign language and so many instances are inactive and therefore filled with spam.
That’s why I add instances manually to federate with. This way, the quality of the content is also much higher.
When posting or saying something in public, there’s no way to retract it.
There’s no difference from posting something on “the Fediverse” or Reddit. Just because you delete your post, does not guarantee that it’s gone. Reddit most likely keep a copy of it anyway and there’s sites that save everything that’s posted on Reddit. so the “issue” is not exclusive to Lemmy.
What you want to aim for is anonymity.
