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:

    I reported this post because it hurts the dev for no reason. Hope it gets removed but the damage is already done. People are stupid.

      If the devs say it up front then how does reporting it hurt them? It’s just accurate.

        Your getting downvoted for an accurate statement.

        This really is just redditv2. Discussion to the sidelines over vibes and feels.
