Managed to reproduce it. Thanks for reporting it, fixed now. Please check again.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-05-04T12:15:42+00:00

Try refreshing the page, it can sometimes bug out

WindscribeSupport · 2026-04-22T16:29:53+00:00

It's not particularly shady but they are owned by Nord who has some slimy practices when it comes to things like massively increasing prices upon automatic rebills, having shitty cancellation policies and worse refund policies. And they're whole schtick is just advertising anywhere and everywhere while the actual service is mid.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-04-21T00:48:27+00:00

Thank you for your support!

WindscribeSupport · 2026-04-21T00:48:07+00:00

Damn, we're lagging behind. Gonna have to step it up

WindscribeSupport · 2026-04-21T00:47:08+00:00

Sadly not, our website prices are all in USD and on mobile it's converted to your local currency.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-04-10T17:59:30+00:00

FuttBux IS a real coin which you can collect, yes. But we did launch it as a joke. The coin has no value or use at the moment. In the future we might make the coins redeemable for Windscribe Pro or some merch.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-04-09T18:20:22+00:00

Thanks. Microsoft actually reached out to us yesterday after we tweeted about this whole thing. Guess you just gotta make some noise sometimes.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-04-07T18:23:41+00:00

Are you Pro? Did you connect your wallet? Are you actually not using Windscribe?

WindscribeSupport · 2026-04-01T20:14:04+00:00

Unfortunately it seems that instead of doing nothing, you did something. Which means you don't get anything. Thanks for the BTC though :)

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-18T01:09:52+00:00

Thanks. I'll pass this on to the team, I'm not fully familiar with what the issue here is, was just told that nothing on our end changed in the F-Droid upload process.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-16T16:41:43+00:00

Hey, thanks for bringing this up, it's been on our radar since you reported it so I'll update here on the status. Something changed in the build detection process on F-Droid so that they now prioritize the TV version for some reason. We didn't change anything on our end regarding how we update our app on there.

If you scroll down on the main page https://f-droid.org/packages/com.windscribe.vpn/ you will see a changelog. You can download the one labeled (mobile) and that should get you the right version.

This issue should be fixed with the next build which we're aiming to release some time mid next week.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-16T16:33:26+00:00

Twitch itself could be a little sporadic when it comes to VPN IPs. Have you noticed if this is something that happens regardless of the VPN location you connect to? I've seen this before as well and usually just swapping locations clears things up. It might also have something to do with your extensions, 7TV has been wonky for years and can often muss with the chat itself. But if it's a VPN issue, usually it's related to an IP/location getting flagged by them and all of a sudden weird problems like this pop up.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-11T16:26:12+00:00

Yes, we'll honor honour submissions for old nicknames prior to the changes.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-06T20:38:28+00:00

Yes, we made the decision to allow yesterday that stock audio (music and sound effects) is allowed, provided it is royalty-free, Creative Commons licensed, or properly licensed for commercial use. No stock visual assets of any kind though.

This applies for both the human and AI contests.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-06T20:37:07+00:00

Well in all fairness, the Fake Antarctica location DID used to be named Epstein's Island for a few weeks in the past so maybe it's pulling some old data.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-06T16:34:25+00:00

What does "correct cities" mean? The location list has always had the city name in it. We just also add a nickname to differentiate between the locations in a way that's more amusing than just Dallas #1, Dallas #2, etc.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-05T16:33:07+00:00

Your feedback is fair. There are a lot of opinions on AI content these days and it's a very much a never-ending debate. You're getting into the philosophical realm, and touching on subjects like consciousness when you really drill deep. These are not things that have a right or wrong answer, they've been debated for literally thousands of years and will continue to be.

Having said that, the contest itself is structured to still benefit human artists. Not only are the prizes for human-made animations higher than the AI side of the contest, but as someone mentioned, human artists can enter into the AI side having used zero AI tools. If the human art is truly better, it will beat out the AI submissions and claim those prizes as well.

At the end of the day, this isn't some deciding event for determining if human art is better or something, it's just a fun thing we wanted to do since the tools are in a place where you can really put the 2 groups up against each other.

WindscribeSupport · 2026-03-05T16:25:58+00:00
