Temu "surprised" by the lawsuit, plans to "vigorously defend" itself.

            I’m all for Libre but in this case @rmayayo@lemmyworld is my leader.

                    Support his development. I will pay to remove the ads at some point when I am not being lazy. Many people like him because he listens, makes changes, has tremendous support and so on. Not to say that others don’t but that is just how we roll.

      That’s what you get for using a proprietary Lemmy app. Switch to Thunder, it doesn’t have ads, it’s open source and in my opinion has the best UI out of all Lemmy apps. Also support the development and join their community: [email protected]

          I tried using Jerboa and found it to be incredibly buggy and poorly designed. Not sure what’s going on there, considering that it’s the official mobile app made by the Lemmy devs
