I love it!

Certainly me as a kid

Thanks. I ended up with InstaEclipse. It requires root (it’s an LSPosed module), but hooks into the regular insta app, which means always the latest version.

gorgeous!

Fuck them.

In fact, I do download apks from various sources. I just had to dismiss some false positives (ReVanced IIRC) so I decided it’s useless because if it’s not false positive I would probably still dismiss it, especially if told to do so by (malicious) devs.

I have it turned off. Is it bad?

With today’s BitWarden drama, I planned to use KeePass with SyncThing for like an hour before seeing this :(((

Don’t

Kde su?

Today I noticed that I’ve saved this post for later when somebody adds their favorite extensions but apparently nobody did, so I just wanted to say thanks for this list. I now use most of these.

Thanks!

The reason I moved to lemmy.cafe instance is because it’s defederated from those tankie instances. I can’t even see their comments anywhere.

Fair enough. As for leaving Instagram, I can assure you I would love to. But I unfortunately, I have to choose between privacy and social life. And will rather be spied on than miss out camping with my classmates just because I wasn’t in the Insta chat group where they discussed it. And you might have guessed from me being a Lemmy user that I’m not the popular guy, so nobody will stop using Instagram because of me or text me everything they plan on there on Signal. Also if you think using TikTok is somehow fucking up Meta, I can tell you that you’re the only one getting fucked.

I don’t think any of these are good. I currently have to use instagram, because all my friends use it for chats and chat groups etc. I don’t use instagram for reels, so TikTok is not an alternative for me. And from what I have read about the TikTok app, it spies on you even more than instagram. Also the modded instgram versions usually have an option to block some of Meta’s analytics, and that’s one of the reasons I want to use them.

Probably any adblocking VPN does. I use Rethink on Android, it acts as a vpn but is local so more of a firewall, I’m sure something like that exists for iOS too.

I EndeavourOS

There was an option to split the download into archives of customizable size IIRC

I don’t care about those dumb reels so tiktok is not an instagram alternative for me anyways. Also I would never install that thing on my device. There aren’t many apps worse than Instagram for privacy, but TikTok is definitely one of them.
