Can someone with more knowledge on the lemmy protocol/api bring some light into this? The way the linked posted is written, it seems like some random angry guy just hates lemmy for whatever reason.

To me it seems like a complete bs argument. As far as I can tell this tactic is possible with every service where users can provide content. Of course I can link to a site that reads users data. There’s basically no preventing this unless the (lemmy) clients provide their own modified browser that masks the users IP and other metadata.

Will the feed selection (All/Local/Subscribed) be saved between app restarts? I really don’t want gonewild (or other NSFW content) posts from All to be at the top of the feed when I’m launching the app in public. I always have to switch to Subscribed manually right now
