Yeah I just disabled it. Didn't realize that's what the icon is

Ah, ya know that's a pretty simple explanation that makes sense

I am not. Is that what that icon means? I was wondering about that

I know Instagram is anti privacy, but can anyone explain this? Question about multiple Instagram accounts on different apps sharing data between each other (lemmy.one)
 

So I have 2 Instagram apps on my phone. Instander is my personal account and instathunder is my "lewd" account (mostly cosplay girls and such). They're on separate apps and use separate emails, however, my main accounts search page is like 90% cosplay/goth/alt girls. I have never looked that up on my personal account but its all that's being recommended.

Are they reading information from each other? How can I stop this? Also, how do I get my personal accounts feed to be normal again?

Using Facebook/Meta Messenger on Android in c/privacyguides@lemmy.one

It's not free, but check out Hermit. It's the best sandbox app I've used and I use it daily. It creates "applets" that are basically icons on your desktop that launch the sandbox instance. So I've got several I use daily: wordle (and variations), a forum I frequent often, different web comics, etc. No need for an actual app installed for each of those when I just have a single app that creates small instances

Spotify Removes Offensive Imagery But Keeps Transphobic Song Despite Outcry in c/technology@lemmy.world

I don't know this song. I won't listen to this song. I don't care about it.

But it becomes a slippery slope when censorship gets blown up like this. I'd rather it all be on there and I can choose to not listen to it than for them to tell me what I'm allowed to listen to on their platform. Are they going to start banning Bloodhound gang or Eminem for homophobia and violence? What about Rotting Christ for anti religion? Dying Fetus?

It should stay on the platforms and collect dust instead of being shared by articles. I probably would have never even heard of this, but now I'm worried that some of the music I listen to will be collateral.
