I do sort of expect the Lemmy instance to protect my IP address, email associated with my account and whatever fingerprinting can be done in the browser as well as protect any Javascript they use from injections of third party Javascript, but only when accessing the instance, not when following external links or otherwise loading external content (e.g. images hosted elsewhere).
