Are you under the impression that what you quoted is a long or unclear text?

If third parties means AWS, then every website you’ve accessed this year shares your data with third parties. This is why the GDPR exists.

I’m always confused when people are surprised by something like an account sync meaning that the operators have to store your data

Makes me wonder if they understand how Lemmy works…

You can disable the built-in apps.

They can’t be removed as pre-installed apps are part of the OS image. It’s a bit like the immutable distros now popular in Linux. Any update to the OS would just re-add them anyway.

These apps aren’t exactly huge in disk size so disabling them is safe and effective. It will reduce battery and memory usage if you would ordinarily have them running in the background for some reason.

The number of people that do this is not going to even remotely shift the usage share percentage.

They don’t need to scrape Lemmy. They just need a federated instance and then they have literally everything you post delivered to them as part of the way Lemmy is designed.

Please understand literally nothing on Lemmy is private.

Sorry, yes. I’ll ammend

You’re both half right.

You get the version at the time of your subscription (plus bugfixes). Then every time a version has been out for 12 months while you’ve been paying you get that version perpetually (plus bugfixes).

So it’s 1.0 when you subscribe, you get that perpetually.

It’s 1.0.1 in your third month, you get that perpetually.

It’s 1.1 in your fifth month. You get that perpetually after 17 months.

It’s 1.2 in your eighth month. You get that perpetually after 20 months.

You unsubscibe at 19 months but retain a perpetual version licence.

• You started with 1.0
• You ended with 1.2
• You have to roll back from 1.2 to 1.1

Previous version was incorrect. This is why I just distribute our licenses, not procure them!
