@drekly, no ok, blocking trackers is legit selfdefense, but also the abuse of ads, blocking these also is needed. Only it isn't a problem when a web shows an banner image or two, this can be tolerated, but not the abuse of ads currently and annoying popups, it is legit to block this crap.

What are you even talking about. Have you used sync?

[–] Catweazle@social.vivaldi.net 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@drekly, I don't use any third party client for social networks, less a proprietary paid one. It's like using a privacy browser, using Google as search engine. There are enough Spyware in the mobile which make trouble to eliminate, no need to install more.

But each one that makes him happy

So nothing you said is relevant to the topic of sync, which is why I'm confused.
