Wait.. you pay for sync not to spy on you?

I hope boost doesn't go the same way.

[-] victron@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago

Sync is no spying no shit, google ads spy as much as they do in any other site or app you use

Dawg, I have Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and a phone OS owned by Google... If sync spying on me is the worst part then I'm doing pretty good.

I pay 2 bucks a month to show the dev I appreciate his hard work.

If you own a Pixel you could always use GrapheneOS! It's been wonderful on mine!

[-] PhillySaxon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Graphene on my Fairphone is pretty great. I do use Sync though because it's great ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Not Sync directly, it's AdMob and Google. And I paid mainly to support LJ for making one of my favorite apps ever, as I said, I have a PiHole

I paid for Sync to toss some money to a dev responsible for the #1 used app on any of my phones for the last 10 years. I paid a criminally low amount back then for how much I used the app.

It happened to also come with ad removal, but I block those and trackers on my network anyway.
