As I said in the post, I find cryptpad to be clunky, slow, and inconsistently mobile-friendly. I also hear this constantly in my organizing spaces. Having more privacy-centered alternatives and building on what exists is also just a net good… All the eggs don’t need to be in one basket yfm
I’m wrong but in my head it’s always been Damien
My router is on a VPN
not aware of youtube sponsorships or why that would matter. I’ve used it for like 4 years now and have had no problems.
I do this with an old phone on wifi. I don’t think it’s a huge deal. I use fetch and haven’t seen any ads or credit card offers etc. you just exchange points for gift cards. I know it’s probably harvesting some data from me, but I don’t really use that phone for much else, and I use a VPN/not my real email.
I use ExpressVPN and their PW manager. I love it. It also has 2fa keys. Super dynamic and has worked on a few different phones I’ve had as well as browsers (Vivaldi, brave, etc)
the ads have been increasingly annoying for me. still always looking for solutions to this enshitification.
thank you! yea it’s really weird that it was going to “localhost” that’s what was tripping me up. I tried changing locations of the VPN and that seems to have worked for now, but I don’t really get why. computers, man.
omg ok I changed the location and it worked. thanks! this is still really weird, because it was happening before on another location, but maybe I’ll just try to change that next time.
thanks for checking…I’m extremely confused!
that’s what I’m confused about. when I turn off my VPN, it loads normally, without changing any settings within the browser or computer/phone.
Wait seriously?? I just joined BC dbzer0 went all AI obsessed. I hadn’t seen that much tankie shit on .ml yet… Where tf are the anarchists on Lemmy?
Yea I wasn’t saying it would replace everything in cryptpad. Just the forms.
