Like if I edit a post, can they see what the pre-edited post was?

    Based on this closed issue, I don’t believe Lemmy natively keeps an edit history, the comment is overwritten. However, admins have full access to all data on the server database so they can (and do) keep backups and look over them at any time. You should consider everything you do on your instance available to your admin, including private messages.

      Simple rule of thumb: if you don’t own it, assume the owner has access.
