I looked for 'how to donate' a long time, then I found it!

[peppyy]

With all that has been going on lately I have been looking everywhere for this. Did a lot of reading, and a lot of searching until finally I found it.

If these kind folks here have been good to you too, I thought I would point this out. I have a deep gratitude to everyone who makes Puppy something special.

And the ones who get things fixed when we can't quite figure them out.

So with no further ado, I give you the secret to making Puppy Linux a great experience for so many people.
Support what you love.

PS, I am not pregnant either

Thank you!

There is some weird blocking going on now . I have to keep changing vpn's .The forum won't load for me if I use an asian vpn address.

I wanted to donate but the page came up in Russian I think (Maybe Turkish?)so sent @rockedge a PM .

So @rockedge is that page OK to use? Will you get it?

[rockedge]

@April It will be okay to use the page. I've inquired and confirmed that is showing a language according to geolocation via the IP, so it should be fine. I think it will come through for sure.

[April]

Nah ,don't like it.
I never donate to anything unless I can touch it . Its against my nature. But Puppy ,and the Members here, have given me a heck of a lot of enjoyment over the years and if I'm ever going to donate it would be here.

I changed my VPN to 4 different locations . Europe , Asia , America and Optimum , whatever that means.
All loaded the page in the same foreign language .

I just don't take those sorts of risks. I want it to get there.
Any alternatives?

@April , based upon your answers, you are using Opera browser. True/No?

[April]

Yep

[Clarity]

That might be the problem. Saw a similar report elsewhere at end of last year. I dont use Opera anymore.

Hope that helps

Which "problem"?
She uses a vpn and - as @rockedge explained - gets a language according to geolocation via the IP.
BTW: it is swedish - not russian or turkish ...

@one Thanks for your reply.

Yet, I am curious if you have verified what @April exposes in his use? If so, are you, too, seeing similar when using Opera & its VPN service? Or,have you seen something else?

Thanks in advance.

Ah OK swedish but the same language comes up no matter which vpn address I use ?

So why would that be?

I'm not at all happy with Opera also . Now they have shut down my Lastpass every 9 days and I must delete and reinstall the extension every 9 days .
NOW the extension will not install at all and I desperately need it so it looks like I might toss Opera in the garbage bin.

Seamonkey also will not load the extension so Ill have to try others to get a browser thatsa not adulterated by control freaks that download stuff and update stuff behind your back while telling you to your face they do not.

Ill start a new thread for this because someone may have an answer.

@Clarity
Yes - I have verified before I posted. It doesn't matter which built-in VPN you use (Asia, Europe, Optimal or America) - the language paypal shows is always swedish.

@one, thanks for sharing your findings.

[April]

Yes . If I load the page in Seamonkey without a vpn it comes in English and recognises me as in Australia.
I would suggest @rockedge that you try to add cryptocurrency and a bank account and other alternatives if you ever get time.
