    Any app that chooses to update or ask you a bunch of questions when you just want to use it CAN GET FUCKED. Open a loyalty app: would you like to rate our app? No. Would you like to see nearby deals? NO. Notifications for nearby deals would be useful… NOOO! Earn double points tomorrow… MOther F*)(&^*&(%!!1

          I like the way AppImages work on my Kubuntu system:

          They automatically update themselves in the background and then trigger a system notification letting you know the app will be updated the next time you close it, with a button to initiate it now.

      Every time I open filezilla and notepad++ I’m in for an update. Fucking annoying.
