    Oh boy… You don’t know what “cloud” means.

    If an app stores info on their servers, they have access to it. This isn’t something only big tech does. Any app may store user account information, general app data, etc. if you can use it on your desktop and you can use it on your phone… guess where that data is…. ☁️ 🧠

    As I said above, what we need are more apps allowing the use of private data storage. Your own “cloud” (server). And then an OS level block of all network connections besides that single source.

      What part of “no network” you do not understand? There’s no cloud in Drip, the one mentioned. Not from a company, not your own. It doesn’t even have the network connectivity.

          You started three chain of replies on a comment in favor of a specific app, Drip.

          Then double down being condescending on your lack of understanding.

          So understand people aren’t engaging positively with you.

      Right. And F-Droid actively encourages exactly that by calling it an “anti-feature” whenever an app connects to a network service but fails to work with the service of your choosing.

      I’m literally telling you about the thing that addresses your exact concern, and yet you’re nonsensically bitching that I’m somehow the one who doesn’t know what I’m talking about? What the fuck is wrong with you?
