      No, I dont think it is unfortunately. Another commenter said it was full of trackers, although I have not verified that. I didn’t realize that when I made the post

          Here is the post: https://beehaw.org/comment/449643

          I cannot verify if that comment is true or not, or how they found out the information.

          I tried to reply and ask, but for some reason my comment will not post! I have tried using the website and several Lemmy apps.

            That comment seems to be an attempt at disinformation. I have not detected any of those trackers. You should also run your own checks just to be sure.

            If I had to take a guess: he’s opening posts that use the internal browser, and sites he’s browsing are the ones i initiating those connections. The app opening the webview doesn’t have much in the way to prevent that.

            Don’t open external links if you don’t know what that entails.

            Connect dev here, we use 0 trackers of any kind beyond what the Play store tracks by default.

            That screenshot is from the DuckDuckGo app when set up to blocking trackers, that means that while it was running it tried to connect to known tracker addresses and the DDG app stopped it and logged the attempts.

            We would need somebody else that uses DDG as blocker too to install this app and run it for a bit and see if they can replicate this result
