or when you see a nice girl and you can't decide if you want to be with her or to be like her lmao
I've made https://lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz/ to help take off some of that load. New registrations are welcomed and it should be maintained for a very very long time 🎂
I'm so happy to finally see a cool light mode setup
It really depends on how that specific instance is set up. Of course during the registration you provide your username and email, but some instances may keep logs that contain things like ip addresses, your user agent and so on (my instance does, for example, but only for a limited time), while some may opt to not keep that info at all (from the sysadmin perspective though they'd kinda be in the dark while trying to fight things such as server abuse).
However, I don't know how it looks from the legal perspective. I'd imagine only the courts could force you to share the information stored on the server, but that requires a trial.
Hey, I also noticed the lack of a madoka magica community, so I created !madokamagica@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz
The easiest thing to do imo would be to just copy the rules from one of the main instances and stick to these. Then just monitor the activity on your instance from time to time and review applications and reports.
You can't discover every community throughout the lemmy's fediverse that way though. Only the communities that other users previously subscribed/searched for. https://browse.feddit.de/ is the thing to use if you'd like to see everything
you can, but you need to search for a specific community, then subscribe to it, so for that lemmydeals server it'd be !monitors@lemmydeals.com for example
If you have a matrix account there is a chat for lemmy development: #lemmydev:matrix.org
