Original Text

Just updated my app today and as usual there are a bunch of “strictly necessary” cookies from 3rd parties like Google Maps and Stripe. But a couple stood out to me.

Rive. Seems to be a library for rendering vector animations. I don’t see how their cookies are necessary. This should all be a client-side dependency. Further, animations aren’t even necessary in the first place.

Swift-avif-decode. Also a client side library for rendering images. I don’t see any reason they should be adding cookies.
