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!
