Thoughts on the JellyWatch privacy policy which seems very clearly stated & cut? Does not alleviate concerns? I mean we all use a LOT of closed source software everyday, who tells you they WILL sell your data vs stating clearly they will not. Like Microsoft & entire family of apps, Google & all it's services, etc etc...
Privacy policies change. Most closed source services ans apps don't have a GitHub repo. I've seen some, they're usually for github issues. But they're all slimey and confuse users into thinking they're open source. Not a good look. I would not trust a company that does things like this. The goal is to support open source. Which is why Jellyfin > Plex
Fair enough, all solid points.
BTW - I am not the dev of JellyWatch.
I would be surprised if they were on Lemmy. But it's a cool app all things considered. Just wish they weren't... Doing that stuff lol. Good share either way.
