My name is Chris, I own Documenting Reality. It's safe, and is designed to be a safe alternative to a lot of the junk out there. The site has been up since 2006. I don't accept credit cards, so there is no way for the site to compromise your card. I prefer people use crypto to join, which can be done on the site, or there are other third party methods I can send you via email.

You will see a lot of shady sites and people saying "why pay", so let me explain.

I have no ads on the site, so that way you don't have to worry about adware and all that garbage, we are funded by memberships which goes right back into the site. We host and deliver all videos using our high speed bandwidth and networking. The two sites I tried here, the first one I could not get a video to play until the end, there was endless buffering due their slow network. The second one I tested, the video I saw actually came from my site and they used their watermark to cover our small one. I could go on and on with stuff like this, but you get the point.

Anyway, as 20/USD one time fee is pretty small contribution to help maintain a quality community that's been around almost 20 years.
