  • web-bugs

    A place to report bugs on websites.

  • I set them up with Brave too. If a website doesn't work, my parents will throw it all out and go back to Chrome. I personally use Firefox but it has too many web compatibility issues to be a viable thing for them.

    🏔 Love Freedom - ❌ Block Mass Surveillance

  • One thing I wanted to mention was Portmaster, a FOSS alternative for AdGuard. Disclaimer, I'm the CCO. I rarely chime in with these shout outs but thought it would provide value since Portmaster aims to be an easy tool for the tech-illiterate. It is an install & forget solution. Portmaster auto-blocks trackers system wide and secures DNS system-wide by default. Curious to hear what you think!

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
