Isn't this the same logic used to justify using our posts to train large language models?
No. There is a difference in context and intent.
Bottom line is, if people are concerned of having their conversation and content distributed out of their intended audiences, we'll all have to move to a fully encrypted network, where every message can only be decoded by the intended recipients. Getting upset because other people are not agreeing to your expectations of privacy is pointless.
I don't think it's unreasonable to expect that platforms you're not a member don't host content you create in order to make it look at though their platform is more popular and vibrant than it is, thus generating revenue of which you're not going to get a share of.
Where exactly does a "platform" end? Is it only lemmy.tf, or all Lemmy instances? Either way Mastodon or Peertube can hardly be considered to be the same platform as Lemmy. Activitypub is a protocol and definitely not a platform. Or would you consider threads.net part of your "platform" once it implements Activitypub?
That's a good question. We have the Lemmy platform, but that's built on the wider ActivityPub platform. So I would consider threads part of the platform.
