I'm always on the lookout for tips, tricks, and strategies to protect my privacy from hackers, corporations, and government. I came across this article with a tip (ironically an app) that goes beyond what some browsers provide to avoid using native apps. https://www.howtogeek.com/how-to-turn-any-website-into-an-android-app-and-why-you-should/

[Duffner] created this group in response to my request for some explanation about posting links, and why link previews wouldn't generate after the URL was included. He discovered that links from X/Twitter have some settings on the X servers that prevent this Cre8aplace platform (and likely others, like Gab) from generating those thumbnail/snippet previews that give us an idea about the content being shared by us. He figured it out quickly and was responsive. If you have similar questions or ideas, share them here. I'll share articles that I've found useful.

CP1 and myself have created a new group where we can discuss ideas to improve this site. Feel free to join if this is of interest to you.
