Vero uses Facebook trackers?

Using /e/OS Applications
1

I’m looking at alternatives to Facebook and have been recommended to Vero.

But the Droid appstore says Vero uses 2 Facebook trackers.

This seems very odd. Can anyone shed any light on this weirdness for me?

Also - any other suggestions for alternatives to Facebook?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Exodus Privacy doesn’t seems to detect Facebook trackers in this app. However, others tracker are detected by Exodus privacy analysis.

Okuna, a European social network, has only one tracker, but that one seems to be a rather lesser known, and lesser used.
However, Okuna is in an invite-or-wait-only stage.

It seemed OK but nobody I knew used it so I stepped back. Similar with Vero. I can’t persuade my friends away from Facebook / Messenger / WhatsApp. Sadly

A few of us use Telegram now but its static. Not growing. Sadly.
