That is amazing, thanks. It actually deserves its spot on the frontpage of HN.
Sure, submitted.
I think the "sexy" word is making it auto-dead by some software spam filter. I vouched for it, but it will take several vouches before the link is accepted.

It still showed dead until I vouched for it, but it was six hours old at 1 karma meaning no one is probably going to see it.

I resubmitted it at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32440745 thinking it would bump the karma at least like other duplicate submissions, but it made a new submission, and it looks like it's probably dead as well.

I tried submitting just the github repo:

Thanks for linking to the submission - I vouched too - but it's still dead.
Anyone looked at tried both of these - and know how they differ (especially for windows 11)?

I vouched too.
This is unbelievably cool. Bookmarked.
Problem loading page

The page does not work without JavaScript enabled. Please enable it to use privacy.sexy. There's no shady stuff as 100% of the website is open source.

Still kind of ironic.

Yeah I was already formulating my rant to complain about web pages that are not able to show what essentially is text and images, without supporting JavaScript...

But now that I saw the site, I can understand that the need is justified, given how the page is built (essentially not a web site, but an application that allows dynamically building a script, by injecting snippets that each do a specific function).

No doubt this could have been done with just text and hyperlinks, but the result would have been a completely different UX.

It’s not just text and images. It build a script tailored to your desire.
Isn't that essentially what all web apps do? Dynamically add and remove content from a single page?
