I don't think Lemmy is more privacy friendly. In fact, its, arguably, even less privacy friendly that others.
That depends on your definition of privacy. Can you elaborate ?
Compared to reddit no lemmy instance is tracking your usage metadata, and it does not share any identifiable data with other Fediverse instances other than what you explicitly share on the platform.
Ok, so I'm wondering how you explain the billions of dollars profit corporate sites generate from scraping and selling our private data? I'm also genuinely interested in how you might explain how TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or anything Google are more privacy friendly than Lemmy?
