What a non-story. The username, profile picture, posts from profile, and post interactions are all required for displaying the content that the Thread’s user has subscribed to. The IP address is required for connecting to the service to retrieve that content. Facebook doesn’t get any more access to your data than necessary nor do they get any more access to your data than anybody else. This is just fear mongering.
What a non-story.
Lemmy project set wild unrealistic expectations on GItHub project: 1) "high performance’, maybe the Rust code but PostgreSQL logic is the ORM madness. 2) “full erase” while sending all your public comments and posts to ActivePub without agreement on concept of delete.
unrealistic expectations on GItHub project: 1) "high performance
For sure. That seems to be the go to phrase for anything developed in Rust. By itself, Rust isn’t any safer or faster than another similar language; it takes a good developer to make it work well.
Just because it’s written in Rust doesn’t make your app safe, or performant. Just like because your app is written in C, doesn’t mean it’s buggy and insecure.

That is with hand-optimized person_id = $1, which the Rust code does not do.
