What exactly would you gain privacy wise from a 3rd party client? All communication goes through their servers anyway. I believe even voice calls go through their server and aren’t p2p.

I don’t believe searching for domains will feed them data as such. You can crawl the lemmyverse starting from a few known servers. It’s how awesome-lemmy-instances works.
what is exactly the purpose of knowing who is blocked by whom?
Before joining an instance it seemed useful to get an idea of their moderation policy. It just gives transparency as to that instance’s policies, as well insight into how the rest of the fediverse views that instance.
I wasn’t aware it was created by known bad actors and it wasn’t my intention to promote them. It was just a useful tool.

For gog games you can check the digital signature on the installer to make sure it’s legit. It should be signed by GOG.
