A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Not sure what the point of "Mastodon's" opinion is? Firstly, Mastodon is pretty big and decentralised, and it has no-one who really speaks on behalf of all its users. Lemmy is not a privacy central network like a direct messenger service. It never claimed to be privacy centric as far as I know. The point is to share posts in communities, and the more that see them, the better.
But it is federated which means posts do get shared to other servers everywhere, and deleting those is not as easy as for a centralised server. Whatever I post on any sharing type service, I consider to be public.
I don't even understand why the OP calls this "Mastodon's" opinion. The link doesn't go to Mastodon. I think the parent post is being a bit of a troll honestly :( The criticisms at the link don't make sense, the person posting the link doesn't seem to think the criticisms are good, and they attribute the criticism to Mastodon while posting "Raddle". It's like they're only doing this to get everybody riled up
Mastodon is where the link to the raddle article appeared. The post on Mastodon basically said they wouldn't use Lemmy because of what the article stated.
