the easiest way to become radicalized about astronomy is to open a stargazing app and to make it highlight Starlink satellites
@AmyZenunim what app lets you see this? i want to get more angry than i already am (and more importantly, have a visual aid to show people)
@tarajdactyl Night Sky for iOS
@AmyZenunim thanks! I'll have to find one for Android. i already had stellarium installed but they don't have a setting for satellites afaict
@tarajdactyl @AmyZenunim They do – at least in iOS! For us it's under the diamond-shaped / bottom left menu: long press on "labels", slide the "satellites" bar to the right, and cry... I saw them passing over the other night and checked it out for morbid curiosity :/

@alexglow @tarajdactyl @AmyZenunim Thanks. Crying right now. 😭

Oh boy, how I hate Elon Musk!

But the upside: I finally bought Stellarium Pro. Time to assemble my (quite cheap) telescope again. :)
