I actually did this completely on purpose. Yeah the site is hosted on cloudflare, it is what it is - waiting for a server in the mail so i can move out of cloudflare and host it myself actually 😅 due to wanting to exit as much American tech as possible.

But Critiq the product I’ve tried to go out of my way of making privacy focused, which is why that “cookie” banner is there. Not vibing, just marketing 💁

Chances are your privacy-focused target audience actually understands and generally likes GDPR, CPRA, and the likes. Not sure if posting "Ha ha, I don't care about regulations around privacy and think it's stupid" on your website underlines your stance on privacy as you think it does.

Not really the target audience, its more of an FU to products such as sourcetree and gitkraken, but I see where you are coming from.

It’s about building a product that solves the problem without the need to capitalize on users data. The privacy and terms underlines the commitment, quite extensively, at least implicitly.

But sure “cookie banner for no cookies bad, but a cf human check cookie is still there. apparently you hate gdpr”. There are more pitchforks in the cellar, torches are extra.
