SEA e-commerces' websites are bad. They know that they cannot collect your "whole" data with just a web browser. Di sila kikita diyan.

An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! π΅π
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from June 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Which is precisely why I want to use it via a web browser, lol! It's a battle of attrition siguro for the likes of us, kung saan tayo bibigay.
Unfortunately, I'm spiteful enough to just stay away from Lazada completely if they make their website completely unusable.
Puro mga kopya rin lang ng Chinese ecom
I thought that it was just the ublock plugin breaking some things in their website but instead it's that their website is really just trash.
Same, suspetsa ko naman, either uBlock origin or my settings sa LibreWolf. Kaso eh, basura pala talaga website nila. Still more usable than their mobile app tho.
Nasa mobile lang talaga ang mga promos nila kaya mapipilitan kang gamitin
Ang nakakainis sa lazada app ay ang notifications nila. Minsan mga tatlo o apat na lazada notifications for every hour.
Pwede mo naman idisable yan sa app settings mismo.
Disable ko lahat except messages para sana sa mga totoong message from seller pero karamihan iniispam pa rin ako ng promo tulad ng "OwO What's this? U left an itewm on u cawt UwU. Will u pwis check out 2 save moe UwU"
The problem is that they donβt use notification categories and mix promotions and spam with delivery updates or store message replies.
Its in the app settings for iOS too but idk, it feels like it never works.
Isa pa yan. Buti sana kung delivery notifications eh, kunwari "your package is on the way to the local warehouse [placename]" eh kaso madalas ang notification sa akin nanghihingi ng review, kung ano-anong promo sa mga product na naibili ko na. Maiintindihan ko pa sana kung related products eh!
Tapos yung feeling mo na auto-start sya kada restart ng phone? Not very sure of this though.
Totoo tas kailangan pa madalas ng app para sa fucking promo codes
It makes sense kung talagang gusto nila na sa app lang mag-check-out ang mga tao (since it's easier to suck up personal data that way).
Kaya minsan napapatanong ako sa sarili ko eh, worth it ba yung mga promo codes?
They want your info op thats for sure.
Yeah, pretty much. Also, my default assumption for any site that tries to push people into using their (dedicated) apps.
If you're on Android, you can set up a seperate account/profile just for Lazada (or similar apps) to making datamining slightly harder. Additionally, you can use Adguard DNS to block trackers while using the app.
