CryptPad.fr is now back online!

We're experiencing some technical difficulties related to an outage at our datacenter that affected many machines. We're investigating the matter and will have everything back online as soon as possible.

CryptPad.fr usage has hit a record high, likely due to European lockdowns. 80K+ IPs have visited cryptpad.fr in the last week opening 360K pads. Notably, registration and drive usage are up 30% from April, showing CryptPad users are here to stay! #privacy #e2ee #cryptpad

CryptPad.fr will be temporarily unavailable later today (Monday, August 2nd, 2020) as we perform some routine server maintenance. Sorry for any inconvenience, and thanks for your patience!

CryptPad 3.20.0 is now live on https://cryptpad.fr! 🎉

We have published a new funding status on our Open Collective page.Thanks to all our supporters !https://opencollective.com/cryptpad/updates/cryptpad-funding-status-july-2020 #privacy #opensourcefinancing #opencollective #encryptedcollaboration

Starting today we're replacing the "master" branch of our GitHub repository with a functionally equivalent "main" branch.

This very minor change is a gesture towards recognising the lineage of "master", rooted in colonial history.

This account has been quiet for the last while because other voices are far more deserving of your attention.

It came to our attention that we were featured in this article (https://rhizome.org/editorial/2020/jun/03/digital-resources-for-a-movement-against-police-violence/) which recommends digital resources for the movement against police violence.
