I forget the name but I was looking for free versions of no code app builders to make a productivity app of my own and one did not have a way to sign up with any email only sign up with Google or MS. Also had to create this second MS account, triggering this captcha, originally because I was using MS designer to generate free AI images but the fast tokens run out 15 a day. So to exploit AI, I always use multiple accounts and it is an MS service. I have like 10 MS accounts now due to using up the free OneDrive storage plans.
Comment on MS new captcha: Why did it have to be that hard!?!?

Ah, that makes perfect sense. Also, with all those ms accounts tied to your IP, I can’t blame them for the verification lol

I do it for all free services. Like AI where you have daily limits. I thought about VPN but I don’t have the cost. It seems the only trusted free tier VPN is Proton bc they have a paid plan. I read good reviews and it didn’t seem to slow down anything noticeably.

I didn’t mean to sound like I disapproved at all. I’m all for what you’re doing haha I’ve use proton’s free tier. They’re fine. I just don’t really trust any vpn company that’s based in the USA, due to their (completely understandable) requirement to keep USA data collection laws.

Minecraft, as I learned when my ms got hacked and their team couldn’t restore my account to me for some reason

‘Wouldn’t’, I think. Ms’s customer service is abysmal on their paid services, I can only imagine how bad it is on their no-cost services. And, the thing is, they have the resources to have better customer service than Amazon gives their Prime members, but they seem to choose not to. It’s strange to me.
