Browsing Lemmy in Jerboa Shows In Chrome History? (lemmy.one)

Hey all, new here and learning to find my way around Lemmy. I noticed that everything I do in Jerboa is showing up in my Chrome history. How do I make that stop?

Really? Why? It's the browsing history of your phone, who is going to look at it?

[–] K1LOS@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Presumably nobody, but I don't want to keep a record of it regardless. Only option I see to accomplish that would be to login manually from an incognito browser every time, and that sounds like a hassle.

I mean it's fine to feel this way, but it's an app in alpha. It doesn't have the resources to have an in-app browser. It's not like they are doing something shady.

I never said they were doing anything shady, and I agree that they aren't. That just isn't something I want and seems I can't reasonably avoid.

Yeah that's my bad. I meant to respond to the poster below you who was acting like it was a breach of ethics or something.

I mean nearly all apps are just crappy browsers with one thing overlaid anyway
