According to the tracking scanner Exodus (can be found on F-Droid), which keeps an updated database on trackers and runs your installed app against its register, you can track what apps are tracking you and clues of how. Saw that Boost is tracking me and uninstalled it and went straight to Jerboa. Jerboa is pretty similar to good ole’ RedditIsFun-app and easy to use, so I am personally recommending it.

From F-Droid:

    You’re not wrong but… gestures broadly at the other available apps that don’t do stuff like this

    It would also take some huge scandal before voyager ceases to be the absolute king of lemmy apps.

    Performance alone i have yet to see anything get close.
