If you have it installed on iPhone, thats fair, i have it, to promote lemmy, but please just turn “allow tracking” of in settings, so they cant make money from the data thet collect, also background refresh, because I’m pretty sure that also allows them to get a bit of data from you
I turned that off, as well as show online status, years ago.
You should disable tracking everywhere you can. Opt-out of personalized ads. Enable the do not track feature.
I still have Infinity, it is a good app for Android, but I also use Apollo on my iPad.
When API changes accure, I will quit Reddit completely.
Lemmy is good so far, it needs help to popolate, I am using “Jerboa for Lemmy”, and I am trying out “Connect for Lemmy”.
I heard Lemmy can have Reddit API as Proxy, so old 3th app for reddit can be modified easily to become Lemmy client.
I’d be willing to bet that just about everyone here used a 3rd party app…
I accually used the official app, i think it looks decent, like its not horrible, and i never even knew before all this that there were other apps, i left mostly because they chose to not listen to its users
To the extent I still have to use it I use red reader or Firefox nightly with an extension that automatically switches it too old Reddit.
I was using Infinity for Reddit but it’s going to become paid after July 1st. Trying to detox Reddit not invest in a page third party API.
Sad about Infinity, I loved that app.
