#askatp In light of the recent discussions about Apple's anti-competitive behaviour, is there anything that would cause you to consider migrating to a Android phone?
@tofugolem Yes, I agree and yet that is the state of the media landscape now.
@tofugolem “New Trump administration may use bold tactics to set agenda”

Apple is usually very smart about the web. They wrote and open sourced the engine that powers the web on every mobile device, after all.

To see them forking the web in Europe makes me sad. When you lose the trust of web developers, you lose a lot.

And I suspect that this is just the first case where this decision is going to bite them in the ass.

They forgot that the first part of WWW is world.

Hi beautiful people. Communication had been a great struggle for me lately. Sometimes I get spikes in energy and start telling you all about the new designs I make and why I love making them. But it's been harder lately to post. I'm still uploading loads of new designs every day tho! I'm creatively active but struggle to post about it. I just uploaded loads of handmade works. I really hope so send them all away. Reblogs are deeply valued. Over 300 pieces available here:

@ChrisMayLA6 with the aim of leaving such a mess for Labour that, within a couple of years, they’ll be saying “We told you Labour couldn't govern”. Same approach used by the Republican party in the US (tax cuts + increased deficit => "Look how the Dems can be trusted with the economy”)
@drskyskull Skullsplitter Steve for me
@DemocracyMattersALot Is that to stop people leaving?
