@_elena It’s kinda scrary, with the right tools one can get a lot of info on people this way

Maybe not direct but many indirect can also lead to that I guess

@NatureMC @_elena Yup! And with Mastodon and other Fedi software (most) you could ‘hide’ it behind a auth check

Not sure why they do it that way though

@NatureMC @_elena But if you logout, you can still view the profile and posts right?

It wouldn’t make sense otherwise

@NatureMC @_elena Well yeah but that’s if you have a public profile

There is no way around that, without an account anyone can view those from the public pages. That’s why we have followers-only for example

But the block lists are not public on Mastodon and on Bsky they are

@_elena Everything on Bsky is public

They don’t care about privacy
