Thank you for explaining it to me. Happy to edit my original post,wouldn’t want to spook users or tarnish Connect’s name…


Why is the Connect Lemmy app trying to track me?
![screenshot of Duckduckgo app tracking blocker that has blocked 107 tracking attempts over the last four days](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/f92b111f-6473-438b-ad59-2861dd7d1c08.jpeg) Hi all, relative newcomer here. I tend use Duckduckgo as my main browser (Firefox if there's issues) as I do like the built in app tracker blocking (and the cookie management and email forwarding service!) I was somewhat surprised just now to see that Connect (current Lemmy app) has been trying to allow tracking attempts by Google, Amazon and other such bellends. Why is that? Surely we're trying to leave all that shite behind? Thanks!
