Dave-o?

Wtf is wrong with you?!

Yes! Excellent advice!

I am a big fan of RSS and have been using it as my primary source of info for at least a decade.

I actually already had SBS but only just now realised that ABC pages (eg “just in”) can be entered directly and it’ll find the RSS version (using Reeder at least).

Do you have advice about how to centralise/organise RSS? I use Feedly as a cloud source that I point Reeder at (have also been playing with Fiery Feeds). But I can’t help but think there’s a better way that doesn’t involve a third party (again, privacy).

Thank you. That’s very helpful.

And yep, https://www.abc.net.au/news is exactly one of the sites I was thinking of. I notice their app makes many calls to firebaselogging-pa.googleapis.com and similar. Sending who knows what.

Moving to the web version I’m hoping can blunt such things. On iOS I use AdGuard, Hush, and StopTheMadness. https://d3ward.github.io/toolz/adblock.html tells me I’m not doing too bad in terms of ads and tracking.

Two others which are pretty bad with their apps but have very similar webpages:

https://touch.footytips.com.au/home https://www.afl.com.au/

I guess my question was if webpage versions of apps can/typically use Google analytics-type tracking of what you’re doing.

And more specifically if Safari with private relay, perhaps with some extensions, can hide anything such webpages are trying to scrape.

Or you could tear the Dyson hand dryer off the wall and carefully jimmy the door open with it

Sorry, my bad. I thought this was a petition OP had set up. And not Mozilla themselves to protect Firefox. Sleep deprivation :(

Ok thanks.

I’m willing to sacrifice some FOSS for convenience, as long as it’s reasonable. But in general I’m a strong supporter of open source and publish my own code that way.

Yeah I’m 100% fine with the functionality. I prefer to keep my life simple. Thanks.

I don’t know if you’re being serious or sarcastic.

I use Safari with Apple’s private relay and various ad blockers and have been quite happy. Are there reasons to be concerned? (other than Apple=bad)

Video games and heavy metal I found is good for my mental health
