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

      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.

          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

            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.
