Is there more privacy though? What you post is public and people can use the api/scrape it soo....

We are free from "intrusive advertisers who tracks every movement, clicks and time spent on each kind of post, comment or whatever"

As well as device fingerprinters

yeah, this is literally a public forum. Everything posted is public. Nothing is private.

Privacy is such a loaded term. To some people it means that your data is.not being actively sold to advertisers. To others it means everything is e2e encrypted.
