Robin is the founder of WikiSpooks. [Edit: Not the founder, but is most active editor.]

Actually not quite, but I've been the most active editor for some years.

Good to know. I must have assumed that years ago and it became fact in my mind. I'll certainly not repeat that mistake.

Works for me - sorta. Something funny happens to my Brave Browser with WikiSpooks. Auto censor or something. Reload and I get a glimpse of it, but it stays white. I reported it to the Brave Community : https://community.brave.com/t/all-white-page-when-viewing-wikispooks-com/44205

Wikispooks used to be slow years ago but they've upgraded the servers, etc.

/u/d3rr - Wikispooks publishes a zip of it's entire site, currently "WikiSpooks-2019-01-27.zip" is 4.97gb. Any interest in mirroring it? I'm still struggling to get Linux Mint on a thumb drive on an old box. When I get that up I intend to install IPFS, Peer Tube, etc and just share stuff on it, and if my IP is accurate I'll have unlimited fiber within the year. I'm considering doing a "Decentralize The Information Tutorial And Tech Support" sub and/or wiki article(s).

/u/Robin - FYI I created a torrent of it and am seeding it. Feel free to co-seed.

SOLVED: "Open your Shields panel and change your script control to Block scripts - page should render as expected."

What is the shields panel?

Brave Browser is VERY similar to Chrome. Brave has a little lion shaped like a shield icon at the right end of the address bar. In it are setting for ad blocking, malware detection, turning scripts on and off, etc. Security settings.

Just got me a Brave browser! ;-)

I like it a lot. It's fast and allegedly secure. It also doesn't crash with lots of tabs. Sidewise is limited but pretty good once you get used to the limitations if you really need vertical tabs. I really like the old Firefox and Vivaldi and my vertical tabs, among a few other things, but I also really like Brave. Almost a year. Also Brave Beta is secure but offers more functionality and can addon stuff from the Chrome addons.
