According to the Boost dev in this thread, its literally required by Google to say that. So I am guessing that any social media app has to say that.

Some people on here will never realize that only paid devs putting in full days will make a platform like Lemmy grow to even a fourth of what Reddit is right now. Part time, unpaid devs will never grow this platform to that size and one way or another, those devs will want to be able to support themselves and that is either through donations or somekind of monetization, which may or may not include monetizing user data. It’s just honest facts that it costs money to run servers and that money has to come from somewhere. It takes time to develop an app and in the case of Sync (probably Boost as well) it’s just one dev and that takes a lot of his time. Nobody would do that amount of work for free.
