I was using Connect until I have found that there are trackers(via DuckDuckGo app) in it from Facebook. Trackers are common in apps, but if there are options available which give same experience without trackers, I will choose those options.
Is there a possibility that DuckDuckGo got it wrong? Or is the Meta already trying to track users from threads which is present on fediverse? Latter seems unlikely but who knows.
That’s untrue I installed Connect and used it for 5min. Stayed only in app and didn’t click on any third-party article link, here is the result:
47 trackers in 5 mins
Yeah all good I don’t want to suspect the dev either but since there are bunch of alternatives available, I’d opt for them than this one. I loved how Connect was the first one to try and implement the swipe between posts feature. Hope it keep doing well in the future.

I will install Connect again and see if it still gets detected on DuckDuckGo having hidden trackers.
