Thanks for turning attention to those. I got curious and looked at the ones for Boost for reddit and they seem about the same. A bit funny to see that the settings for the app only show Notifications as a granted permission (and no other possible ones). Can anyone familiar with Android app development chime in with some details?
There are several FOSS clients already in F-Droid. I’m trying out Jerboa, Thunder, and Liftoff. Lemmur is also on F-Droid but it’s abandoned and doesn’t seem to work well.
It will be good feature wise, but privacy?

I’d appreciate if the dev could explain the need for these perms. I’m sure it’s something innocuous, but it’d be relieving to hear why they’re there.
That’s probably due to the ad provider for the free version.
You should be able to disable any tracker so…
Yeah seems pretty shady to me, I’ll wait for a FOSS client for Lemmy. Maybe Infinity will come in clutch and make Infinity for Lemmy.
