Are you kidding? Lemmy itself is 100% public and easily scrapable. It's likely easier to get data on users.
It still needs to be profitable for them. Why would they want non profitable content freeloading on their servers? No doubt it will be collected and sold, just a work in progress.
Why would it not be profitable, it's still user data?
They sell it to advertisers. We would be hard to target since were not on Metas platform. I would think it's worth less since its not immediately usable for stuffing an ad down our throats and pseudoanonymous.
