Accounts and anonymity?

For social media, I don't mind using my real name and email to register as long as only my username shows on posts or image uploads.

When I upload an image, what can other users see?

I start to respond to a post or comment that I see on NEW. I finish and right before I hit post, I notice the instance/server is completely unrelated to my response and I deleted my post :) - It's an added nuance to Lemmy that takes some getting used to.

Would you be able to share an example? (Short description or screenshot is fine)

We might be able to clarify or add it to the guides in the future

Can you please add Liberapay as a donation option? I don't see it on your donation page.
