      Instantly, I don't trust whoever this is. That's a red flag. Matters a great deal to me, thanks for pointing it out so I don't give the site a click.

        I just wanted to let you know, I was wrong/just blind,

        I reopened on my desktop to have it another read on an easier to use screen, and they have them listed under the list header, but it uses the term "affiliate" instead of referral, and claims they make no money on the links.

        I don't fully understand why referral links are necessary if they make no money off of it though, so I'm still on edge about the integrity of it.

          Thanks for coming back around about it. Still, I agree with you and consider it a red flag, it is antithetical for a privacy person that claims to support FOSS.
