To the developer working on SimpleX,

Why are you still using Microsoft Github ? (and by extend Reddit ! )

I had myself a question for the maintainers. I was planning to use the discussions and to do so, create an account :'( But it seem that Microsoft really doesn't like Tor:

Cheers.

Have you tried a signup via a VPS provider or thought about going to your local library or some bar to use the public WiFi there with an obscure browser running in a VM that you will delete later ? It is years ago that I signed up with Github so I could press star or follow some issues of projects. I thought it was nice to find out that after enabling 2FA it was worry free using it with Tor browser.

Yea I forgot about public WiFi + protected OS trick. That should help quite a bit. But the other issues with GitHub (censorship etc) will still be there unfortunately
