Can we have some clarification on what "Usage Data" the app collects and shares with advertisers? (lemmy.world)

What constitutes Usage Data. Is it sharing the posts I view, communities I subscribe to etc?

Does paying for a premium version stop this data being collected?

Funding from donations only gets you so far.

Then maybe that's as far as we should go?

Wikipedia makes it work.

    Another example would be lichess.org , which manages to compete with chess.com (a comercial site) and even pays the main developer a salary. All based purely on donations.

    I think it can definitely work even in the long run.
