Enable/disable PMs is in https://forum.pine64.org/usercp.php?action=options
The real problem is that if you've just signed up (< 3 posts or 2 days active or something like that), then your account is limited as a spam-reduction measure & you can't yet post attachments or send/receive PMs.
And about the privacy gripes, don't forget,
- You have to allow Google Recaptcha to create a forum account - trying to fingerprint you
- The web servers are all on Cloudflare, the other big data collector. (You do have a Detect Cloudflare installed in that hardened browser, don't you?) At least it's stopped trying to set __cfduid cookies after the recent update, but it's still on Cloudflare.
