I like how they expertly hide the fact that it’s nazi propaganda and the photos are like “uh, here’s some pictures of plants! It’s uh, people share uh, gardening tips yeah!”
At least they show what they think of women.
Aurora rules. (and doesn’t track you)
If only someone finally forced iOS to be open for other stores
It is if you live in Europe.
How has that worked out? I have been curious how much Apples security depended on owning the only allowed app store.
Spoiler alert, it didn’t. There’s many ways to publish malware on any official store. Not straightforward, but always possible.
I found this list:

But no evidence of significant usage of 3rd part ios app stores yet.
You could just use something that isn’t iOS
Louis Rossmann made a good Video about this. TL;Dr: when some company does something shitty, instead of just fleeing to the next big company and hoping that they will not do the same and blaming everyone who is still using their stuff of the old company, you need to actually fight back against the company doing it. Privacy oriented people are few and far beetween, so the „Voting with you wallet” thing will not even make a .01 mark on their revenue
Droid-ify is also great.
WTF is that last search result though 🫣
“….without discriminating on the basis of political ideology.”
Isn’t discrimination like, the entire purpose of what Truth Social is about?
Shhh… They don’t want their feelings hurt.
The type of people that truth social is designed for (conservatives, rightists, fascists) are often shunned for discriminating against minorities. Here they’re trying to pull a “no u”, to say that akshually we’re the ones who are discriminated against in mainstream media, and we’re gonna build our own platform with no discrimination, making us more virtuous than you. They don’t believe they actually have less discrimination, to them “discrimination” is a playing token in the game of morals. Actually, it would be more accurate to say that it doesn’t matter whether or not they believe they have less discrimination, because having less discrimination was never the goal. The card says moops.
They should be taken down for false advertisement etc. You don’t get to claim not to discriminate on political ideology if you also censor and delist posts that you disagree with.
The democrats lacked the tenacity to ever have done it, and the criminal enterprise that currently infest our government would never cease the hardworking blowhards that fervently feed their wind-tunnel.

By the end of 2021, Facebook, YouTube, and Amazon changed their content moderation policies in ways that were directly responsive to criticism from the Biden Administration.
After reviewing tens of thousands of emails and nonpublic documents between the Biden White House and Big Tech, the Committee’s report reveals:
-
Big Tech changed their content moderation policies because of the Biden White House
-
The Biden White House’s censorship targeted true information, satire, and other content that did not violate the platforms’ policies
-
The Biden White House’s censorship campaign had a chilling effect on other speech
-
The White House had leverage because the companies had other policy concerns involving the Biden Administration
-
The Biden White House pushed censorship of books, not just social media
Oh wow, cry harder. Only reason you hear about conservatives wanting to taste liberal tears is because they’re tied of the taste of their own.

Are you…still crying?
The Democrats have their problems. And they are many. Yet oddly bear little to no resemblance to all the bull the Republicans accuse them of.
As for me, I know I have no friends in Washington. So I couldn’t possibly care any less about your pretty little list of bullshit from your previous comment…
The DNC and the RNC bear a remarkable resemblance on any subject that involves corporations, their biggest donors.

Subjectively, I meant- use their authority to take them (Truth Social) down.

If you read the reviews on the play store, it seems like people get banned left and right for posting factual truth. So much for “freedom of speech”. Not like anyone expected that in the first place from a fascist echo chamber, but hey.
By the way, the official Pixelfed app on the Play Store seems to have Google AdMob integrated if you care about that kind of thing. I’d recommend installing Pixelix or PixelDroid from the official F-Droid repositories instead.
The official pixelfed app has a repo on f-droid, you can install it via the QR code in the download link on the pixelfed website
Does the F-Droid version not ship with Google AdMob?
Not sure how I’d go about checking that, it isn’t listed as an anti-feature, but neither is anything else since there’s no description on f-droid
Does it have a dark mode? I used the website mostly which is alright, but tried the app when they announced it a couple days ago, and that was my first issue.
Pixelix and PixelDroid both have a dark mode.
Excellent, thanks!
No problem!
Apple is probably pushing that Ad free of charge. Considering how quickly Tim preemptively bent the knee just on the chance it would benefit him and the shareholders is obscene. I’ve always known Tim only cared about money. After all, that’s the only thing he did better than Steve Jobs. Now I know for sure that he’s a worthless selfish waste of a human being.

ooh is that the new iPhone?
In stead of “ad free photo sharing” you get “photo free ad sharing”
I refuse to believe this is real
Still there mate
This is what I get. Not as bad but still bad lol
It’s literally an ad? You can choose which search terms your ad appears for
Well it’s an ad, so capitalism will get an edge
Americas big tent
When I see an ad to that, I download it on an old device, then uninstall it and give it a 2 star review.
I appreciate your dedication
This was my result:
well that’s a different app store
For now…
This is why we gotta ban TikTok!!! \s
Charge your phone
Truth social is based on mastodon so its close enough
they’re not in the defult repo :/
What store is this?
Droid-ify client, which is an alternative client for F-Droid.
If you’ve never used F-droid, give it a go: https://f-droid.org/en/about/. It’s a FOSS package manager for Android and nothing more. All it does is host, install, update, and manage applications. No ads, no sponsored suggestions, no ranking. It has strict submission requirements, only serves FOSS apps, and prominently lists apps’ “anti-features” (tracking, reliance on third-party services, things you may not like).
Not a negative review, that was something positive but I don’t remember it exactly:
They are not 1:1 the same versions as in the playstore. As soon as in-app purchases are available. This means that you can only update the app via the same store and the other would require a new installation due to a different signature.Sometimes F-Droid versions are missing stuff because they’re done by proprietary means on the Play Store versions. Push-notifications for example might be missing.
Sometimes you get more stuff. Play Store version of OsmAnd+ is paid while on F-Droid it’s free.
In addition to what you already mentioned, I think there was also something if there is a donation button.
