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?
Doesn't this ad/subscription model, go against the grain a bit? With Lemmy & the fediverse in general, being an opensource environment, which has no ads, & funded by donations, rather than a subscription model...
I hope there will be a pro version where you can pay to opt out of all ad and track nonsense.
No, it doesn't. Unlike Reddit, Twitter, or Threads, Lemmy offers a variety of apps. There are so many that there is something for everyone. Even a "professional" app that finances itself with advertising or a subscription is allowed. The special thing about Lemmy is the freedom of choice.
Funding your project with donations is just not a realistic long-term goal. This is why so many instances fold up shop in just a couple of weeks as their servers are overloaded and no one donates money to keep it up.
Capitalism is a problem but it doesn't mean everything has to be socialism. There can be an in-between.
You are mixing socialism and communism.

LJ was very adamant about not collecting or keeping any user data under the reddit regime. I'm happy giving him the benefit of the doubt here.
Yea but does that prevent Google from getting that data via AdMob?
Removing ads via IAP or the Sync Ultra subscription eliminates that data sharing.
Per the dev, responding to my question in the discord server just now.
Why are the responses to all these questions happening in Discord rather than the official Sync Lemmy channel? ๐ค
The Discord is just as official as this community?
Discord is a closed garden, it's awful for things like this.
Discord is great for things like this. For simple questions, Discord is better than reddit or Lemmy.
Yes, i do enjoy searching my way through 5648 shit posts with the keyword of a problem i'm trying to solve.
So the only way you can avoid that is to ask the same question which was already answered 10 times by the same person over the last couple of weeks.
What a great way to troubleshoot
