I got this email and I fucking hate it because it says "If you don't want to use these features, you can turn them off in the Apps settings page." but there's no explanation how and no link to an explanation how and i you look at the Apps setting page you see fucking nothing relevant https://hachyderm.io/@SnoopJ/114740795891598833

@mcc I really like "you can turn this off" right after "this can help you whether the thing is on or off".
