Hi new people! I would say I'm pleased the blue hellsite is dying because I've never liked it, but honestly the way in which it's dying is SO worrying in terms of what it means about Apple's use of the app store to control huge swathes of the internet it has no right to, so actually I'm right bloody pissed. However! I am glad you are here! I hope you like Dreamwidth! Drop a note here or on my sticky post to say hi and introduce yourself, I should probably update it for real when I'm off my phone but for now, have this!

Yeah, I agree. :( What's really hard too with them is that a lot of educational spaces use Apple products - I know the school I worked at, every school I did student teaching stuff with, and my college all used Apple products exclusively because they got them through grants.

Honestly Android isn't much better. Google has uh, not held up with their "no do evil" idea and that's the most popular version of droids now. :(

There really isn't an ethical alternative so far as I know in cell phones and it really, really sucks.

(But fuck Apple esp.)
