Description

The formatting and sentence structure of card contents are inconsistent in some places.

Bolding

For some sections there is no bolding in the first sentence of the description. For example, the cards listed at https://www.privacytools.io/providers/paste/ do not bold the name of the service in the description:

PrivateBin

PrivateBin is a minimalist, open source online pastebin where the server has zero knowledge of pasted data. Data is encrypted/decrypted in the browser using 256bit AES. It is the improved version of ZeroBin.

CryptPad

CryptPad is an open source, zero knowledge, realtime collaborative editor. Data is encrypted/decrypted in the browser using 256bit AES.

This is also the case in https://www.privacytools.io/software/real-time-communication/, https://www.privacytools.io/software/notebooks/, etc.

But some sections having bolding in all of the card descriptions. For instance, at https://www.privacytools.io/software/passwords/ we have bolding:

Bitwarden

Bitwarden is a free and open source password manager. It aims to solve password management problems for individuals, teams, and business organizations.

KeePassXC

KeePassXC is a community fork of KeePassX, a native cross-platform...

We should either not bold the service/software/etc. name or bold them all.

Sentence structure of first sentences

The first sentence of the descriptions vary in structure.
A lot of them follow the structure of

<Name> <Summary text>.

but some don't.

For example, looking at https://www.privacytools.io/providers/hosting/, almost all recommendations follow the <Name> <Summary text> sentence structure.

Bahnhof is one of Sweden’s largest network operators, founded in 1994.

DataCell is a data center providing secure colocating in Switzerland and Iceland.

Orange Website is an Icelandic web hosting provider that prides themselves in protecting online privacy and free speech.

Njalla doesn't follow this structure as its first sentence is (an incomplete sentence)

Created by people from The Pirate Bay and IPredator VPN.

Some sections follow the <Name> <Summary text> structure entirely, but some others have a mix.

This sentence structure issue is somewhat related to bolding of the name in the description.

## Description The formatting and sentence structure of card contents are inconsistent in some places. ### Bolding For some sections there is no bolding in the first sentence of the description. For example, the cards listed at https://www.privacytools.io/providers/paste/ do not bold the name of the service in the description: > ### _PrivateBin_ > PrivateBin is a minimalist, open source online pastebin where the server has zero knowledge of pasted data. Data is encrypted/decrypted in the browser using 256bit AES. It is the improved version of ZeroBin. > ### CryptPad > CryptPad is an open source, zero knowledge, realtime collaborative editor. Data is encrypted/decrypted in the browser using 256bit AES. This is also the case in https://www.privacytools.io/software/real-time-communication/, https://www.privacytools.io/software/notebooks/, etc. But some sections having bolding in all of the card descriptions. For instance, at https://www.privacytools.io/software/passwords/ we have bolding: > ### Bitwarden > **Bitwarden** is a free and open source password manager. It aims to solve password management problems for individuals, teams, and business organizations. > ### KeePassXC > **KeePassXC** is a community fork of KeePassX, a native cross-platform... We should either not bold the service/software/etc. name or bold them all. ### Sentence structure of first sentences The first sentence of the descriptions vary in structure. A lot of them follow the structure of ``` <Name> <Summary text>. ``` but some don't. For example, looking at https://www.privacytools.io/providers/hosting/, almost all recommendations follow the `<Name> <Summary text>` sentence structure. > Bahnhof is one of Sweden’s largest network operators, founded in 1994. > DataCell is a data center providing secure colocating in Switzerland and Iceland. > Orange Website is an Icelandic web hosting provider that prides themselves in protecting online privacy and free speech. Njalla doesn't follow this structure as its first sentence is (an incomplete sentence) > Created by people from The Pirate Bay and IPredator VPN. [Some sections](https://www.privacytools.io/operating-systems/#os) follow the `<Name> <Summary text>` structure entirely, but [some others](https://www.privacytools.io/software/real-time-communication/) have a mix. This sentence structure issue is somewhat related to bolding of the name in the description.

Also, the recommendation for Terms of Service; Didn't Read at https://www.privacytools.io/browsers/#addons loosely follows this structure but it's not grammatical. The TOS;DR recommendation doesn't follow <Name> <Verb> <Noun phrase>

Terms of Service; Didn’t Read “I have read and agree to the Terms” is the biggest lie on the web.

' “I have read and agree to the Terms” is the biggest lie on the web' is also not really a summary of what the extension actually does for users.

How much does this still apply?

I noticed that at least the Notebooks section is a bit off with the Joplin warning not being a tooltip, but instead its own section.
