The Boost android client for Lemmy is displaying these dark pattern ads pretending to be system notifications. What security/privacy conscious Lemmy clients do you recommend?

Idk, I've tried a few but still like Boost; just can't get into Jerboa or Liftoff, which I tried. It's mostly just their ad network being meh --- though I mostly just get crappy fake gameplay ads, and not enough to bother me. I'm not even sure if they're targeting me, cause if they are, they're pretty bad at it.
Unfortunately I'm sure the app developer doesn't get much say, virtually all mobile app networks are cancer.
Jerboa doesn't have ads..?
Not even one ad, it's open source same with Eternity.
I switched from Jerboa to Eternity because of the 0.19 update fuss.
What's this fuss about ? I was a Eternity user before Lemmy (I don't recall the name of this app, when it waS reddit) edit:typo
When the update happened, The version of Jerboa in the app store and fdroid was not compatible with the 0.19 changes as you could not sign in, so I just switched to Eternity (which seemed to handle 0.19 better) instead of looking for a RC version of Jerboa.
Edit: There are no problems with the current version of Jerboa (0.0.55) and Lemmy 0.19.2, just to make things clear.
That is why i am confused. The person I replied to claims that Jerboa and Liftoff have a bad ad-network. While i don't know Liftoff Jerboa for sure has no ads 🤔
No ads whatsoever on voyager. Maybe give that a shot?
