Really cool! On iOS there's a noticeable delay when clicking the buttons and clicking the backspace button quickly zooms the page so it's very hard to use. Would love it in mobile friendly form!

This looks really nice but I was burned by another free form service (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16466147) that just disappeared without any notice.
I ended up switching to using a Google script which I've been happy with so far: https://github.com/dwyl/learn-to-send-email-via-google-scrip...

I tried to sign up but couldn't get past the street sign captcha. I tried three times... Google is making it hard these days.

Using 'data-area' requires modifying the html so it is not a css only approach. This is a fairly big turn off for me.

I tried https://www.freetaxusa.com this year since I dislike Intuit so much for their lobbying. The site works very well and has a pretty similar flow to TurboTax except no auto import of financial account info.
I'm not sure the trustworthiness of the company/site. I didn't see any red flags in the privacy policy but would love to hear from others if they've used this.

YouTube increased the efficiency of their site which ended up increasing average page load time - more people across the globe could now use the site when before it was too slow to bother with.
