THIS MACHINE
000,000
This card belongs to this browser. Bits earned here live here, every open-shelf tool runs here, and nothing about either is sent anywhere.
AN ACCOUNT WOULD CARRY THE BALANCE. IT IS NEVER REQUIRED.
How it works
- Every finished job deposits bits, and the LED in the tray counts them.
- Everything on the open shelf runs here, in this browser, on this machine.
- An account would carry the balance between machines. It is never required.
Questions, answered honestly
- What does this card actually do?
- Nothing you have to manage. It is the record of this machine: the bits it has earned and the stamps it has collected.
- What is stored on this machine?
- Your bit balance and your preferences, in this browser. Nothing else, and nothing anywhere the machine has to phone home to.
- What happens if I clear my browser data?
- The balance goes with it. That is the honest trade for not asking you to make an account before you can resize a picture.
- Do I need an account?
- No. You can sign in with an email link to let bits follow you between machines, and signing in will never gate an open-shelf tool.
