Announcing: https://justaqrcode.com.

Tired of "free" QR code generators that are full of ads and trackers, that share your data, and that want to sell you something? Me too. Here's my act of resistance: I made a one-page site that works entirely in your browser to generate a simple QR code. And that's all it does. You can download the HTML page and run it locally, even. Read the source; nothing up my sleeves. Just a QR code.

My offer to you -- I will continue to pay for the domain name and web hosting for it, myself. If you find it valuable, you can pay it back by creating your own useful thing for the world and releasing it for free. Let's take back the friendly web, one vexingly-monetized utility at a time!

🐝 Bees pollinate 1 in 3 bites of food we eat — but pesticides, habitat loss, climate change and air pollution are pushing them toward collapse.

It’s time to stand up for pollinators and the planet.

It’s definitely progress! 🇬🇧🇪🇺

This looks like a line drawing of a restaurant, but it’s actually a photograph. The entire place is designed to look like an ink drawing. Extraordinary!
