Can we have some clarification on what "Usage Data" the app collects and shares with advertisers? (lemmy.world)

What constitutes Usage Data. Is it sharing the posts I view, communities I subscribe to etc?

Does paying for a premium version stop this data being collected?

I've been using DDG for tracking, and Connect had all sorts of weird tracking when I used it. Check it out with some network monitor and make sure it's not sending back your info.

Thanks for the info. Which ones are open source and don't track? Liftoff and Jerboa?

Jerboa seems clean so far! Haven't tried Liftoff much as I didn't like the UI.
