Inbox's spiritual successor Shortwave has finally come to Android

True, but we should normalise talking about prioritising privacy.

Here on Lemmy there's slightly more privacy-sensitive demographic than your average social media. It was true even back on Reddit and it seems even more true here.

Good for the people who use them. I don't.

I'll still speak out against any app with such a heinous privacy policy.

If people didn't care, privacy wouldn't be a marketing tool and things like "App Tracking Transparency" that Apple added to iOS a while ago wouldn't have worked so well.

Also, do you close your door when you go on the toilet, or go around telling everyone your credit card details?

Things like these don't come from ignorance of privacy, but rather services are explicitly designed to lock you in and have unbearably long privacy policies and ToS agreements.
