Wonder what GrapheneOS’ take on this will be…lots of people don’t use biometric authentication/always have location turned off.

I was wondering what that crazy bar at the bottom was! Sometimes it’s green for me. Yet another reason to keep on the degoogling train…

Alexis Bledel is actually Hispanic, so this is intriguing…let’s make this a thing!

Mull (available on F-Droid)…it’s like a hardened version of Firefox

That’s probably it - I’ve only browsed All once or twice when I’ve run out of new Subscribed posts…I must be missing the drama from other random communities.

Makes sense - appreciate the response! Regarding your last point, one look at my comment history shows I’m clearly not a troll, but totally get it…I just keep seeing all these posts/comments hating on .ml and having not seen anything myself, it makes me wonder if I’m missing something or if I should think about even switching instances…

Can someone please explain all the .ml hate? From what I’ve seen, it’s mostly a tech (i.e., not tank!) instance and I haven’t experienced any drama at all aside from other instances hating on us. It seems WAY too overblown and generalized from my experience. If the OP blocked .ml are they even able to see my response here?

I leave them. I’ve even dialed the super close ones a couple of times over the years on purpose just to (anxiously) see if their numbers have been taken 😅

Tom from MySpace really is the nicest guy on this list…he was my first friend on there! 😎

As a kid, I thought this was meant to test your sound system for the movie (aka lone CRT) and would blast it as loud as I could.

Best version by far -it’s almost like Tolkien reading it himself!

I just wiped Windows from my drive yesterday and committed to Fedora after dualbooting for 15 years…I’ve been maining Fedora for a while and always kept Windows around “just in case”, but never actually seemed to need it. This recall/AI spyware was it for me though. Gaming has been a breeze for a while on Fedora/Linux due to Steam/Proton…such a great feeling to finally be completely rid of Windows!

There are other privacy-respecting trackers that could be used for app improvement. At the end of the day, Google profits from the data collected here, and Lemmy has a big community of users looking to avoid this. Tangentially, Google also has massive contracts with the Israeli military that have recently come under fire in the news…just another reason to use different app-improvement trackers if the goal is to truly boycott/divest, etc.

Day old account with tonnes of down votes and attacking people just trying to help…you are very clearly a troll. Also, I must be a guy since I’m commenting about tech? 🙄

I pointed out the trackers that are included in this app for full transparency…not everyone likes having Google and Facebook on their phone. The inclusion of these trackers also hint that the app isn’t open source, which was the initial question. I’m not sure any of this called for such an inflammatory response…

Looks like it has Google AdMob, CrashLytics, and Firebase Analytics trackers…as well as FB Share according to Exodus. While I totally support the cause, this app is definitely tracking/profiting off of it’s users behind the scenes.

Nah, this one’s legit… Crazy indeed!

Microscopic Dwemer spiders!

Pumpkin seeds are a great source of mag (and iron, protein, fiber, etc.) - especially if they are roasted!

The lite version has 4 fewer trackers and 20-ish fewer requested permissions…still pretty crazy. Check them out on Exodus
