It’s proprietary software; what did you expect? That shit will always betray you sooner or later, almost by definition.

I would have liked to think folks on-the-ball enough to ditch Reddit for Lemmy would know better, but nope!

Bro the GDPR consent reads like spyware. And the ads?!

Perhaps Jerboa is best for now, until Boost comes along

There’s probably going to be an ad free mod if you are inclined to go and find it in the near future/medium-term.

How a about no spyware third party trackers? I didn’t protest against Reddit to lose my privacy to Sync.
