There’s no spam filters that will protect you 100% from putting the same email address everywhere.
Well, you could curate your own whitelist, but that’s not very practical for most use cases.

The people still choose reddit/Facebook/google. I don’t know we’re supposed to change that without actually removing people’s freedom of choice.
In my opinion/experience, it’s for a few reasons. People are marketed these centralized platforms, typically they’re very/fairly simple to use, and those platforms already have an established userbase. Combined with the other factors, the userbase will keep growing, which also incentivizes Even more users to adopt the platform.
For most people, there’s no incentive to use some small random forum. And these small random forums aren’t typically run for profit, meaning people aren’t paying for ads for their niche forum or hobby website because it’s just a hobby, not a business run for profit. Whereas people will see countless ads for Instagram or TikTok. Typically, people who don’t block ads, and use these sorts of media didn’t care enough to bother looking for alternative platforms, they couldn’t even be bothered to set up an adblocker.
any benefits of this over Spicetify? does SpotX also support theming?
what kind of apps cant be updated through playstore/fdroid?
it’s not that they can’t be (maybe some apps I use can’t) but rather that I don’t like some things about F-Droid. One of the big things being unreliable app updates. They are often significantly outdated compared to GitHub releases.
https://www.privacyguides.org/en/android/#f-droid
“Due to their process of building apps, apps in the official F-Droid repository often fall behind on updates. F-Droid maintainers also reuse package IDs while signing apps with their own keys, which is not ideal as it gives the F-Droid team ultimate trust.”
- Simple Gallery for your gallery (just purchased but there is an emerging fork I’m blanking on the name of)
https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Gallery
Simple Gallery was bought by ZipoApps and will be soon flooded with ads and tracking garbage, FossifyOrg forked the whole simple mobile tools suite, and will continue development independently of ZipoApps
Obtainium is great for updating apps hosted outside the playstore, big upside being you don’t need to bother with FDroid releases
It's nice, but I wish it had sponsorblock support, though I'm not sure if it's something they'll add.
