"textContent": "Just like anything else, it comes down to your individual threat model & priorities\n\nIf you can afford to avoid Reddit, do it. It’s closed source, not private, and engages in morally questionable practices (such as is detailed in this article)\n\nUn/fortunately, Reddit also hosts a lot of large, unique, niche communities. Lemmy & other “alternatives” rarely enjoy enough users to be a true substitute. Many do still find irreplaceable value in reddit’s online spaces\n\nRedreader + anonymous email + VPN should probably provide most users with sufficient anonymity (note: _anonymity_ , not privacy, reddit cannot be made private, but you can take steps to insulate the account from your true identity) for most threat models",
