Thank you Rachel β™₯ unfortunately I'm only white-ish as I'm half Indian, but no one can tell so it definitely plays in my favour!

Haha thanks. Yes public sector are public, and the range for my salary is viewable for people so I'm just making it more specific ☺ Capital One are generally quite visible with their salaries - and a senior manager mentioned they're happy me sharing it, I assume largely because the company is happy with how they fairly compensate employees

I know part of it is that (from what I've been told and understand) if you the customer were to I.e. leak your data accidentally, it'd lead to the bank being reprimanded, and so one way it's managed is that only FCA registered third parties can access data. That being said, I don't really know how some third parties allow programmatic access in this case. Also having worked with Open Banking implementation, it's not as fun to use without having an intermediate API that the third party provides to you, rather than the raw OB spec πŸ˜…

I think it's more that if you install via the official packages in a Linux distro (as most will) then the packagers would have patched the code to nag the user out of the codebase, as distro maintain versions for a different lifecycle than Docker expects

Mine did the same on the Web app, but after going to mobile with a login that seemed to learn very quickly that I want cats and dogs πŸ˜‚

You may be interested in https://github.com/voxpelli/webpage-micropub-to-github - in the #IndieWeb community we've worked on a standard call #Micropub which allows you to use a number of clients (mobile and desktop) which interact with a Micropub server. There's a tonne of clients available, including the one I'm replying to you from, right now!

I've recently bought a house and I feel this statement πŸ˜… I don't want all the maintenance, but having a much bigger place to live for a decent amount a month is what convinced me
