Privacy Tips

To exchange contact information, we recommend using the built in messenger on Lemmy, never share contact information in posts or comments.

It is best to communicate using one of the following methods.

• Lemmy (built in messenger)
• Email
  • Email Alias (Simplelogin, addy.io)

We highly recommend using a secondary account for communicating with your pen pal by keeping it seperate from your personal accounts online (Such as a secondary email address)

It is also highly recommended to use end-to-end encrypted communications as much as possible.
