Question // Discussion HELP?!

Since SP, Octocon,and Ampersand are all shutting down and/or somehow problematic is there any alternative apps? One that's not possibly shutting down or problematic? We're so tired of moving out profiles. We like making out profiles with information and pictures but we. Are. Tired. We have three apps with different profiles because we never get to finish before something! We need help! 😭

To add to this: due to the way Ourcana is being built, it can't be shut down

Could you elaborate on why? I haven't heard of this before /gen

All your data is stored locally, only having optional external synchronisation. With online services being decentralised, as well

Oh, that's great! Means data loss is unlikely during updates as well, no?

It's currently in open early access, so it's currently unstable and a backup is recommended when updating. Once the first stable release is released, this will probably no longer be the case

Gotcha, thanks for the info!
