This doesn’t even make sense.
If you are on their domain they can see the things you click on, this is how websites and cookies work.
This isn’t nefarious, it’s the raving delusions of a tech illiterate idiot.
No.
You can see a link was loaded in the page. Link tracking is still needed to know if the link was clicked.
It can be an “on click” JavaScript event, or a redirect to a tracking site.
No, if you click a link that brings you to or from a site your IP is logged
Navigating the internet requires having and disclosing your IP address.
Sorry
The destination logs the IP. The source doesn’t see the click, because it happens in your client, not in their site.
Source: managed tens of thousands of sites and hundreds of thousands of servers for over 25 years.
Not true, many frameworks out there for tracking client side interaction, and not only clicks, also keystroke and even just mouse movements on the page….It is called RUM data. It works similar to google analytics.
Your splitting hairs at this point.
My point was without SOMETHING to track clicks, you… Don’t.
Still a million times better than mastodon.
Why?
Mastodon is dead, unusable, and left a bad taste in the public’s mouth. The fediverse is good for some things. But a miroblogging site where people need news fast? No.
Bluesky has already become the replacement for Twitter, and it’s off to a great start. I tried mastodon, I had 3 accounts, I used it as much as I could, but as soon as I got an invite for bluesky, I stopped using it. There is no content I wish to see on mastodon.
I dunno.
Bluesky sucks imo and I was there early.
