OnionShare VS nitter

Open the Tor browser and navigate to the OnionShare website (https://onionshare.org/).

Wasn't expecting to find something amazing from this blog post, but this project looks amazing! and has a few big partners behind it so I hope it does not vaporware https://onionshare.org/

OnionShare (chat/file transfer feature)

After researching, I see there is an onionshare github issue that notes that the errors are specific to v2.5 of the app and are not present with v2.6. Looking further, I noticed that v2.6 was actually released Oct 9, 2022 - about 7 months ago and a little over a month before the Fedora 37 release on Nov 15, 2022... In other words, plenty of time has elapsed for the new version to have been picked up via autobuild scripts so I am assuming that some sort of manual notification would be required to inform the maintainer that a new release exists / request it be added to Fedora repos. But I have no idea on the process for this...

Could you share the project file, pretty please? :D Maybe using OnionShare (https://onionshare.org/) or Firefox Send (https://github.com/timvisee/send-instances/)?

Don't use Youtube without going through a proxy like Invidious [1] or Newpipe

Don't use {site} Search without going through a proxy like SearxNG [2]

Don't use TwiXXer without going through a proxy like Nitter - this has gotten more difficult lately but it still works as long as you feed the daemon some registered accounts. Video does not work at the moment but that seems to be fixable.

Don't use Reddit without going through a proxy like libreddit [4]

Start noticing the pattern? Maybe it is time to start producing promotional posters:

The only thing to come between you and ADS could be a proxy / ADS. I'ts just not worth the risk

ADS / New rules for a sane net / Sane net protects you, your partner and your community

A proxy here and a filter there, ADS nowhere

The more you tighten your grip, ${site}, the more viewers will slip through your fingers

I assume this is why Nitter got slammed and is on the verge of breaking.

The creator of the project left this comment an hour ago:

Most of the time you can just replace twitter.com with nitter.net or nitter.it but when these instances are down or blocked you can use other instances listed here: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/wiki/Instances

But as the other commenter said Libredirect is the way to go: https://libredirect.github.io/

Use a Youtube proxy like Invidious [1], problem solved and you get to subscribe to channels without telling the Beast about your interests. Add Sponsorblock (which supports Invidious) to get rid of any in-stream advertising which remains and you'll be transported back to those hallowed times of yore when men were men, women were women and advertising was something you found in newspapers. Youtube will try to make this harder just like Xitter is trying to make it harder to use proxies like Nitter [2].

njal.la restored nitter.net, and replied with their reasons: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/1150#issuecomment-18...

tbh I can totally understand why they acted this way.
