Some of the stuff on their blog feed is just very negative. Like why would you write a blog post about how to delete an account from another service? Just seems petty and vindictive and not really any of your business. Why do it?

Then they have an apparent advert for Disney?

Remember when they forced an a creepy advert for some random TV show into everyone's browsers?

It's all just a big unhinged.

Curiously, I actually like their reasoning behind the blog post:

> With our lives so online, our digital space can get messy with inactive and unnecessary accounts — and forgetting about them can pose a security risk.

This is a good message about web hygiene. It does feel a bit negative, though, you're right. I wish they'd focus on more balance between "big tech bad" and "try this cool open source alternative" because there are SO many cool projects out there to help you manage a music library, or personal streaming, etc.
