For instance say I post a guide on how to do something related to piracy…should I be concerned that my IP is being logged? I understand if it is logged it is most likely saved on the instance server I’m posting on. What I’m asking is if I should be constantly using a VPN while browsing or posting on instances?

by default most web app servers and the infra you access them through will log IP and User Agent/Browser at minimum. Even if a lemmy instance is configured to not log, it is very likely the app firewall, router or other layer will be logging. something to be aware of for ops that want to make sure logs are clear.
