So I tested other Lemmy apps. Liftoff is clean, but tracker control grabs all links form it. But now I'm using Thunder, and after 20min of using, it only detect one link - to reddit.
Here's how I tested:
Pihole off on my home network, TC running. Open Sync (I paid for ultra, so no ads) and then exported the csv. There were zero hits. Open theScore (riddled with trackers and ads) and then exported the csv. There were 16 hits.
Left is Sync, right is theScore.
Why wouldn't you compare this with liftoff or jerboa? What's theScore?
My goal wasn't to compare Sync to other Lemmy apps, it was to compare it to something I know has a bunch of trackers/ads in it. theScore is a sports news/scores app.
