The Lemmy interface tells you if there are new unread comments on posts you viewed before. Does that mean Lemmy tracks all the posts you've ever viewed and when? Is that information public?

Lemmy 0.19 keeps track of read posts, and read comment counts for a given post (it does this by time post was accessed, in order to show an unread comment count). Viewing your read posts isn't possible.

Lemmy 1.0 will have the ability to view your read posts (no one else can view them obvi).

    Interesting. Are there plans to introduce end-to-end encryption?

    e2ee for what? I believe the only case of e2ee in the fediverse is mastodon private messages, but if you need e2ee communication I'd recommend matrix or simplex.
