Will the donation dialog be served over the API? Because I use the Thunder mobile app and hardly ever go to the web interface at all.

Oh, okay, good to know it should work. I’m just a standard user, but it is something that interests me.

Okay, that shows how to make the interfaces available over the network. But is there planned functionality for making Federation work? Even if you don’t federate to clearnet domains, you could have several onion instances that could federate with each other and have a network of onion instances.

I did open an issue on the thunder application asking them if they could implement SOCKS5 proxy support in order to do the tor proxy at like 127.0.0.1:9050

I’m just a user and don’t follow the project super closely so please forgive me if this has already been addressed somewhere.

Is there any sort of JavaScript-less interface that would work properly on the Tor network with strict settings enabled? And could you set up instances only with a .onion domain? That way you don’t have to pay for a domain and you’re not at risk of having your domain yanked by ICANN, etc.

If I remember correctly, there was a mastodon instance that was using like a Pakistan domain or something like that and they yanked it.

Also, Federation between Onion and Standard Domains that way tor users would not be isolated.

My main reason for asking is that in my worldview, governments want to break encryption and break freedom of speech, if at all possible, and so the dark web is going to be more and more necessary as time goes on.

Edit: The more standard traffic we add onto the Tor network, the less able it is to be blocked or surveilled as to why somebody is using the Tor network. As an example, I send all of my signal traffic through Tor and download apps from fdroid through Tor and chat on SimpleX through Tor and quite a number of other things. Not because I need the Tor network, but just simply to be yet another person using it for standard activity

Apparently, top ups support Monero, but I haven’t actually tried it, so I don’t know for certain.

Thanks, that’s super helpful.
