I must generate a qr code. I search for sites to do this. The first result lets me do this but requires an email to download the thing. The second result lets me do this but requires an email to download the thing. The third result lets me do this but requires an email to download the thing. Each of them display the generated qr code on screen but then refuse to let me download it. Technology sure is amazing.
Unfortunately there's way too much of these leeches who charge for stuff that is otherwise free, then use spammy SEO techniques to bury the free options.
As for QR code generation, DuckDuckGo has a built-in generator that's always worked for me. For example: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=qr+Visit+Lemmy.World+-%3E+https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world
Probably not useful in your case, but:
Can you use a snipping tool or screenshot that shit? Otherwise, throwaway email lol.
Duckduckgo is pretty convenient for quickly generating qr codes. You just type qr followed by its contents into the search box and you get a qr as result.
