Hi! I started learning about privacy a few months ago and there is a few (many) things I'm struggling to understand and I would thank you if you could share some documentation/sites to learn more

One of the issues is about DuckDuck Tracker Blocker on android phone (low/moderate threat level), which takes the VPN spot. Is it really useful? I've uninstalled several apps and replaced with FOSS when possible, so it's not blocking a lot of stuff lately (or so it says) I've also been trying Proton Free+nextDNS (also not sure how to choose lists) but IDK how to decide which one is better, but I'm wondering: does DNS make the blocker app redundant? Isn't it kinda the same job (different lists, maybe)?

Thanks in advance!

 

Hi I'm not a fan of social media and I left TW recently because I realized I spent too much time in there doomscroling and getting angry. That's how I found Lemmy

but there are still a few IG and TW accounts that I would like to keep tabs on (local news, content creators, stuff like that) Is there a way to maybe put all that in a single app in a controlled feed? I though maybe RSS (Been using Feeder recently, still building my sources but I like it) could be an answer but I haven't found a tool that's free and still working (I know it's the opposite of their business model)

My hopes are not high, but thanks im advance for any answer
