Disabling iCloud doesn't stop most of actual data (not usage meta-data) from being shared?

This is probably the third time I've seen this same post on this community.

Not posted here when I checked before posting and I just checked again, searching for Apple then sorting by new.

Maybe the previous person removed the word Apple or it was a different publication which didn't mention Apple in the headline?

They are lemmy.world but we are discussing this in lemmy.ml.

Here is my app (Boost) not finding those articles. It is only looking at lemmy.ml.

Welp, maybe I was wrong. Sorry for that. Should've checked more cautiously, I suppose

[–] sqgl@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I still don't understand the whole federation thing. Does your app combine the "Privacy" group from lemmy.ml with that of lemmy.world and other lemmy instances?

[–] JustMarkov@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Umh… Maybe? I'm not sure about that. I use Thunder, btw

[–] sqgl@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What happens if you do a search like I did in my screenshot?

[–] JustMarkov@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I see all the posts, that I linked above

[–] sqgl@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Including mine I presume. Not the beehaw one I "crossposted" from. I will post about it on the Boost group, thanks. The developer won't like being outdone by Thunder.

I appreciate this post from OP and didn’t see the last two apple privacy posts. It’s fine to highlight but its coming off a little condescending that this person tried to share content but you’ve already read a post… who cares

[–] sqgl@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Wasn't too rude. I still am not sure I understand federation between instances.

And I just realised now that my app has a proper crosspost option (which I should have used). Nobody picked me up on that.
