Calling HN a privacy nightmare is pretty wild. But sure, let’s dilute the term even further until it loses all meaning. Websites that are truly privacy nightmares will be delighted.
Seriously. HN doesn’t even actually need JS to read it. And it’s certainly not filled with trackers by any means. Might as well call Lemmy a privacy nightmare.
The issue is that you cannot delete posts (after a short timer) or your account. Everything you post there is there for forever. Google it, you’ll see tons of people trying and all of their accounts are still plainly visible.
It’s just more of the same but without the ability to easily create and rotate alts so even more of a privacy nightmare than HN
