Bummed out they're injecting ads into lemmy :/

Not only ads but tracking and spyware too. I got asked to consent for a shit ton of thrid party cookies seconds after i opened it for the frist time ...

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.

It's his app! We can make suggestions, but it's his own choice whether to add ads.

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

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!

The problem is that all third party apps for lemmy look trash
