    Yes, but as long as you don’t reveal your identity, they can’t do much to track you.

    They don’t have access to your IP.

    Of course, it you’re using the same username over multiple services, or reveal identifying information (which is much easier to analyse now due to AI) they will be able to track you.

      Is IP not logged anywhere in Lemmy/ ActivityPub?

          If image embeds aren’t cached by your server they can be abused to gain IP, but that’s a hack, it’s not intended.

            You can set a Lemmy server to proxy image requests

              Exactly, that’s why I said for ones that aren’t cached. They can be cached, but it’s not a guarantee they will be.

                Proxying is a separate option from caching. I think it was added in 0.19.5

        I think server admins can access. It makes sense moderation wise, if for keeping a tab on alts for enforcing permabans.
