Sssssuuuuuuurrrrre....
But I really don't think Lemmy is big or widespread enough for people to recognize each other based on random info and a username.
Doxxing generally happens because someone wants to identify you, not because random people accidentally figure out who you are. A doxxer will attempt to extract details from your account's comment history and see if you have other accounts based on username or specific references.
the proportion of terminally online losers who would actually waste their time doing it seem to be higher here than other places though
