Admins almost certainty have database access.

Not if we speak about admins in the context of Lemmy instances. I, for example, am admin at feddit.de. Yet only the owner has access to the VPS running the software and I am stuck with the options the Lemmy UI (or API) gives me.

To clarify, by "admin" I mean the owner of the instance server, not necessarily people being granted admin privileges.

Point is they are not private.

Yeah we can agree on that.
