1 year agoI’m not entirely sure if that’s the case.
Nevertheless, it would be great if people had better tools to assess whether the “trades” they make with tech giants are as innocent as they think. This requires, for example, a better understanding of the data they are giving away. I think the list of permissions shown on the app store for the legitimate app can be quite abstract for many people. Makes it too too easy to overlook the potential consequences and quickly click download - or accept, like many do with cookies.
I tried using the official app as I had a relapse - I gave it a serious shot, but it is just soooooo behind the UI in Apollo. It so many little things it gets wrong, but overall It’s just not fun to use…
I think this is the reason I like Voyager so much, it’s beginning to look a lot like Apollo ❤️
