My university just released an "official" app to "chat with your friends, look up your marks, your timetables, see your enrolment details..."
Guess who developed it? The fucking Santander bank.
Guess what the Terms & Conditions say? That your data can be sold to third parties and that you will receive advertisements from third parties.
The app even has a "News" category that is, again, controlled by the bank.
FUCK, I'M ANGRY.

@ConnyDuck Timeline = Timeline find ich gut, in der Mastodon-Übersetzung sind es momentan allerdings "Lokale Zeitleiste" und "Gesamtes bekanntes Netz" (für federated timeline x).

Check out redhisft-gtk for a nice minimal GUI.
The Burning Page (Invisible Library 3), queer stuff
Yeah maybe Kai's awkwardness around Kai's family & Kai being so insistent about dragons being cool about gender is really just because Kai is totally not a guy, but was brought up in the only cissexist part of dragon society and is super bitter about that and doesn't know how to handle the conflicting sets of rules?
…at least that's how I'm going to headcanon it
