Not referring to Google Docs, for that there's cryptee which is pretty great but they don't have either of those two (Forms and/or Spreadsheets)

Thank you, Cryptpad seems a great alternative while retaining more privacy

https://www.zoho.com/sheet/ is a closer replacement to GSheets IMO than Cryptpad, if the extra privacy Cryptpad offers is not a priority.

Thank you, it looks great alternative to convince others at work using Google Spreadsheets to try making the switch, not so much for personal use if the person cares a lot about privacy since it requires a verified phone number

I dont believe it requires any phone number, did it ask you for one? I set up a free account with just an email address and have been able to make sheets without a problem.

Yes (it does) and no (i didnt ask for one), it shows up on the register page strange that it doesn't for you, maybe its for some countries then? im from EFTA though i dont get why it would be required.

Yeah that's weird, nothing like that on the register screen for me.

If you hate having money, salesforce has formstack that is actually pretty good, and does the same things in more complex ways.

If you hate having money

There's not a lot of people that have a lot of money so people must obviously not want money that much. 🥲
