    I’m saddened at the amount of uncivilized discourse going on in this thread.

    You can actually talk about these bugs and development with the developer on discord, and also submit reports and suggestions on GitHub.

    Saying things like “fuck this” and “uninstalling” about a beta that has had at least 2 versions updated today is the same kind of useless discourse I’d expect with failed protests on Reddit.

    Here is a more civilized critique of one of the gdpr functions on GitHub. https://github.com/laurencedawson/sync-for-lemmy/issues/200

    Perhaps you can make a new issue about a reject all button as well.

    Edit- this response is to the commenters here, not op. OP made a well formatted and polite issue on GitHub.

      If its uncivilised to uninstall an app because it’s bugs are invading your privacy, then I don’t want to be civilised. If anything, I’m doing the author a favour by telling them why I’m using their competitors.

        There is a big difference between “WTH is this shit” and “This is a reason for me to use another app”.

          I agree that “fuck this” might be a bit too strong for some people, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with “uninstalling”, as long as the reasoning behind it is mentioned.

          Edit: I see now that you’re talking about hypotheticals, because nobody in this thread is doing that.
