Is Lemmy really ran by neo-nazis?

I saw a comment somewhere saying the title and had links but I lost the comment now. One of the links was going to raddle.me which is a Reddit like site

The political views of the main devs are controversial but it doesn’t really matter since Lemmy is free and open source. No one owns or runs it. Only lemmy.ml specifically is run by the devs.

What about privacy? Will the devs only get your info if you are a part of Lemmy.ml?

I don't understand this question. This is a public platform, there are no secret messages or info. What do you mean by privacy? Hide what from whom?

Look at my other comment with the link. It’s saying that even if you delete your account the only thing that happens is that you can’t access it anymore but every comment and data is still in the database

What about The Internet Archive? Search engines cache? Copies made by other people? etc.

This is a public platform; don't share things you don't want to be shared. You can't truly expect anything being deleted forever everywhere.

This is how every website on the internet works. It’s why they say everything is permanent on the internet.

If you don't want it there don't post it. The internet is scraped and copied and backed up. You can ask for it to be deleted but the company likely doesn't own every copy.
