  • Lemmy is open-source software, so of course no one can control how you run your instance. That said, if you plan to host an instance for public use, you should be transparent about what data you collect and for what use. Again, I can’t force you to be transparent, but I think it would be nice if the lemmy devs only recommend transparent instances on their website. And to avoid every instance admin needing to write their own policy from scratch, I think in the original source code there should be a policy document about what data is collected by default. That way, instance admins only have to modify the policy if their data collection practice differs from the default.
