Hello everyone. I am still learning about the fediverse.

I wanted to create a Mastadon account, and I see many different options for servers. I couldn’t necessarily search which servers value privacy like this community does, so I am hoping you can inform me what servers DO offer that mindset.

And finally, do you just trust that they follow this, or is there a way to verify?

It seems like, from my understanding, my information will be stored by someone else, somewhere, in hopes it’s protected.

    It is worth noting (assuming we are referring to the same incident) the Mastodon data wasn’t the target of the search, the person just happened to be actively working with a database backup when the FBI executed the warrant and took all of the person’s computers and stuff.
