I feel like everyone I know has been lookin for cryptpad alternatives (upon ditching google) as it's incredibly slow, clunky, and inconsistantly mobile-friendly. this ... seems good??

anyone tried it? what are yr experiences? other decent, private form builders you would recommend?

tysm!!

It might be a bit too early for someone to having tried it

But it does look interesting

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

Oh I thought you were saying that about Google. It looks like this is only surveys, so I would say it's not a comparable alternative outside of that.

Yea I wasn't saying it would replace everything in cryptpad. Just the forms.
