*20s into opening a new app*
“Why not take a moment to rate us on the App Store?”
Because I’m now going to make hating your products my entire personality.
@SecurityWriter
I have a policy. If an app asks me to leave a rating, they get the lowest possible rating.No exceptions.
Those tactic skews ratings and makes them completely useless as a means of telling if an app is worth using or not. I'm tired of it.

“Are you enjoying this app?”
I fucking was until you interrupted me.
@SecurityWriter "which answer will make you leave me the fuck alone?"

@SecurityWriter @RonJeffries I’d love to go back to the olden days, where it was only apps asking that question.
@dhemery @SecurityWriter @RonJeffries
It all begins with one question. We tolerate that one question. It doesn't stop there. Not one. Ever -
@SecurityWriter I pretty often take the time for a 1 star review for interrupting me especially since I have the iOS level switch to disable review requests, but apps use their own UI first etc…
@g @SecurityWriteri hate being prodded into being free labor for all these companies, i would not do it for a gift card so my default review is as low as i can go for everything when you prompt me cause fuck your scores forever

@dcbuchan @SecurityWriter Maybe Later!!!

@SecurityWriter A while ago, some authentication token application asked me if I was enjoying it.
Nobody would use this application of their own free will. It’s only ever used because your workplace or bank or whatever puts it in the way of doing what you actually want to do. The best rating they can ever hope for is “inoffensive”. And interrupting me further to ask for a rating *makes it offensive*!
@bob_zim @SecurityWriter This, but Teams/Outlook. Am I enjoying this app? No, I am not.
And while I know it’s a waste of my time, sometimes I provide feedback just as my tiny way of fighting back.

It all begins with one question. We tolerate that one question. It doesn't stop there. Not one. Ever@yiorgos The moment I get any kind of unasked for "feedback" I block and remove everything to do with whatever it is. And I'm just a cranky old lady in the Rust Belt.
I HAVE NO TIME FOR YOUR SHIT, whomever wrote this garbage asking me stupid fucking questions about nothing. -

@SecurityWriter Another one, and I'm looking at you Fing, is would you like to try our desktop app which only runs on Windows and Mac?

@SecurityWriter I was having moisture problems in my crawlspace, hired a place to come out and do some repairs and install a sump. They did a great job, crawlspace is dry as a bone now.
But they asked me to leave a review on their Google maps page, and when I didn't, they called me repeatedly asking me to do so.
I tried explaining to them that I never leave reviews for any reason, but they kept pleading with me. I eventually resorted to blocking their number.
Apparently, this bullshit is spreading out into meatspace. We have really constructed a horrible place to live for ourselves.
@nuintari @SecurityWriter unfortunately, in this timeline, the score on Google Maps can make or break a local business, so I can see where they're coming from.

@SecurityWriter oh yes. You just captured my encompassing rage.

@SecurityWriter All too common, it's so annoying. And desperate. It's everywhere. Glad I'm not the only one.
*orders an item of clothing and gets it delivered*
Four days later, an e-mail: "Hey, are you satisfied with your order? Would you kindly leave a review?"
Me, in my mind: "Well yeah, I would've returned it if I wasn't? Why, you want it back? Hm, review? No thanks, this was an ordinary purchase, I do not feel the need to waste time on that for a run-of-the-mill order. It does not warrant a positive or negative review."
Store, two days later: "Heeey, remember to leave a review!"
Me: "Well, now I've lost _any_ inclination to ever buy anything from you again..." -

@SecurityWriter @briankrebs
There are so many 1-star reviews I have posted on the App Store along these lines…Usually because I have lost my train of thought my a nag screen like this.

@SecurityWriter Any app that interrupts what I'm doing to ask "Do you love this app?" -- without the ability to dismiss the question with no answer -- will get the answer NO, with no explanation or further feedback from me.
Also... "love?" really?

Un dibattito NATOblindato. La guerra, il Parlamento e il silenzio sulle basi USA
@anarchia
Mercoledì 11 marzo il Parlamento italiano torna a discutere della guerra che si sta allargando in Medio Oriente dopo l’attacco statunitense e israeliano contro l’Iran del 28 febbraio scorso. Ma, al momento in cui scriviamo, già dalle risoluzioni presentate alla...

@floreana @tofe @spettacoli è molto più banale: Invidious riflette YouTube. Che ogni x giorni/settimane/cambia i suoi parametri. Le istanze devono adeguarsi e visto che è sostanzialmente volontariato, ci possono impiegare + o - tempo

Anche ieri ha detto questa sciocchezza. Il Sì al referendum non ha alcuna incidenza su decisioni come questa:
1) chi fa domanda di asilo non resta detenuto in un CPR (salvo poche eccezioni previste dalla legge), come dispone la normativa Ue
2) l'Alta Corte non potrà sanzionare chi adotta certe decisioni (salvo poche eccezioni, anche in questo caso, previste dalla legge), perché non entra nel merito delle stesse.
Quindi, di che parla Meloni?
