So many things, big and small have become enshittified and it can feel pretty overwhelming imagining doing anything about it.

So I decided to start disenshittifying (@pluralistic's term) stuff one small step at a time.

Starting with a QR code creator and a password generator. No ads, no tracking, no shit.

And I encourage anyone to join in, or make suggestions!

@johnallsopp @pluralistic To a certain degree, one could argue that FlatHub, or more narrowly GNOME Circle, also provide something like that. Being Linux apps, they are of course much narrower in scope and don't solve the issue for most people. But it also shows that platforms that don't live off of enshittification are possible. https://circle.gnome.org/
