A few minutes ago, I'm just reading the news from the RSS feeder app called Feeder and then suddenly I got a notification from x from Linux handbook which I was seeing in the feeder app. How?

Ngl that is sus. I would hope its a coincidence but if your already using feeder I would go to the settings and disallow X to run in the background.

I wonder if this could be involved with it too? https://blog.hidemyass.com/en/twitter-is-now-spying-on-the-other-apps-you-download-on-your-phone

I have not used Twitter so that's my extent.
