fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Captorify – A Better Chrome Screenshot Extension
Made it because most screenshot extensions look like ass. Whenever you have to capture a scrolling page you have to use an extension that looks more than 10 years old, and you have no idea where your data is going.

You can use the offline version for free, it doesn’t send your data anywhere, and it works with Arc.

fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Fighting Harmful Coronavirus Disinformation
I have redirected the domain AlchemyList.com to the spreadsheet, which should make it easy for anyone to pass it on to others.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: I created a website to compare online service security, need your help
Yes, there's a lot that needs to be done, thanks for pointing that out, I've noted it down

The category links on the home page works fine on my end, what platform and browser are you using?

I'll go over all the filters to make sure everything is properly explained, and ensure design consistency.

I'm planning on adding a link to the source of each data point, so that users can see what e.g. the feature "Audited" if "Yes" is based on.

The "Naughty List" (producthunt.com/posts/naughty-list) will be restructured, but I haven't had time to do that yet, so I decided to just include the raw data from the Alpha.

I will remove "Security Issues", which I just did with "Reputation", because I ultimately want that to be based on crowd sourced data with sources.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad that you pointed out a few things that nobody else has mentioned so far!

Thanks!
fredrikaurdal··on Ask HN: I'm creating a startup financing directory, looking for suggestions
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I'm working adding more resources every day, it just has to be done gradually to make sure the data is of high quality. But I do want to expand the range of services offered, along the lines of what you are suggesting.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: I created a curated directory of 400 startup grants and gov loans
There are no promo codes left.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: I created a curated directory of 400 startup grants and gov loans
I thought it would be good to build a simple and useful site that can help find the right resources to fund your startup. Hopefully FundingLinx will become one of the first sites you look at when you are trying to find startup funding, as we'll add other private capital funding options in the future :)

FinanceLinx is a curated directory of resources to help you find grants and government loans for your startup. It includes an overview of more than 400 programs, divided among 32 countries. This allows you to raise capital without having to give away equity, or expand an existing business with low or no interest government backed loans. This project is 100% community supported, to preserve impartiality, and save you a ton of time by not having to find all of these resources on your own.

It would be great to hear your thoughts!

>>> If any HN members want to try it out, just message me on the site and I'll give you free access.

fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Will be fixed in the next major release :)
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
The scores are completely transparent: http://secured.fyi/edit
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
It's not perfect, but what I could build in a short amount of time. I'm working on creating a much better and more intuitive system.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
I'm working on creating a new system that will improve the accuracy. Some people have pointed out something similar on reddit, which I do agree with. Phone number requirement is added under SMS.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
I'm working on building a new site that will support a similar feature, and many others.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
This doesn't work? https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7093344
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
I want to add a lot more information as well, but there are some limitations to my current spreadsheet system :) I'm working on creating a new site.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
I'm planning on re-building the site, which I'm working on. The analytics software I'm using is a self hosted version of Matomo.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Changed.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
The site is literally based on a spreadsheet at the moment, which has some limitations. I'm working on re-designing my system, which will allow to more easily include sources.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Look at my previous comment, you are not interpreting the list correctly.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Nope, their status is Yes, which means they will delete your data.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
To make this clear, Tox has 0 Naughty Points.

There are some limitations to running this on what is essentially a spreadsheet. I want to re-design the system before I add more data, because then it will be easier to make the transition. This is a priority, only limited to how much time I have available.

There is some clarifications in the change log: https://secured.fyi/changelog but all sources will be added once I have the new site ready.

fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
I'll be working on re-designing everything from scratch, and not rely on my current jquery solution. It's a matter of how much time I have available, but it's a priority on my list :)
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
For EU users yes, but for other people kind of, when using EU based services.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Thanks for your suggestion. This is a work in progress, and I have to create a more advanced system than only a spreadsheet to improve the list.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Good question, added.
fredrikaurdal··on Want to freak yourself out? How much information tech companies store about you
Read the whole tweet. I knew large tech companies stored a lot of information on you, but not this much info.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
You have to allow scripts to run, because it relies on jquery.
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Thanks :)
fredrikaurdal··on Show HN: Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Not sure what you mean.
