Small comfort for whoever needs to use that bank. This is the disconnect geeks and Free Software needs to bridge to make any headway.

I mean, I concur, but ultimately I can't fix shitty banks being shitty. No geeks can. Banks have been shitty for a long, long time.
Do you know how we usually stop them from being shitty? Forcefully, with legislation.
it costs basically nothing to change banks. you sign up to a new one and they transfer your account and direct debits. you just tell your employer where to send your next salary payment.
Sometimes it’s more complicated than that. And the other banks aren’t any less “stupid”.
Lloyds has perfectly good online banking through the browser. there, done the work for you.
