SneedChat Complaint Thread

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Something I've noticed about the hanging/crashing of threads on mobile: the hanging seems to happen on both PC and Android.

However I have a fairly decent PC that's running Windows so it doesn't bring the entire OS down, it only causes the webpage viewport to freeze up and reloading the tab fixes the lag.

Meanwhile my phone has a not-so-great Snapdragon 690 and also runs Android, and it can vary from the entire OS becoming unresponsive for a few good seconds to the entire OS crashing and rebooting.

And from my experience this hanging/lagging also happens when using Sneedchat on PC using a dedicated "test-chat" page. So I believe that people experiencing hanging/crashing while browsing threads is fully on the Sneedchat being loaded while browsing certain boards.

So please, @Null, if it's possible, make it so that the Sneedchat box on boards doesn't load for browsers with a mobile user agent. Android phones cannot handle whatever the fuck Sneedchat is doing, so at least it would be good to minimize this issue by not loading the chat whenever a chat is not needed on mobile.
 
Hello Joshua,

I have rarely needed to be logged in to do what I need to do on this fine website, however I'd like to access the chat.
I can see myself as a member in the autism chatroom but get "failed to send" when I try a message. Can't even get into or see the fish chat.
For such an overworked gentleman such as yourself, please don't prioritize the rectification of my woes.
The chances are quite high I will post this message and not come back to the site for days or weeks. It was in a fleeting moment that I chanced upon the fish chat page and thought it might be fun to engage with humans in realtime.
I value you and your disciplined efforts. Keep up the good work.
I hope you have a tasty treat for dinner tonight. Please don't neglect care for yourself as you care for all of us.

I have a request: comment out the bit of code that clears the chat messages on reconnect, so that when the "Connected!" message pops up it happens inline with the previous session. On Tor, Sneedchat reconnects way too often and sometimes it just wipes a conversation before I get to see what was posted.
 
I consistently get this error when trying to join "General Chat", other chats are fine:

"You cannot join this room. Try refreshing. If you still have issues, post in the Sneedchat Discussion thread."

So, here I am doing the required needful post in this thread.

Posting this here as reference for anyone who wants to connect to SneedChat while using Privoxy.
This setup is a result of a couple hours of trial and error. I do not have much experience with networking.
Privoxy is unable to load SneedChat, since its listening port only uses a HTTP proxy, and SneedChat uses WebSocket, which is not compatible with the HTTP proxy.
Using this config, you can access onion services through Tor, clearnet through Tor exit nodes, eepsites on I2P, and Sneedchat on WebSocket through Tor all in the same browser.

Flowchart
privoxy_flow_chart.png

Using I2PD as the I2P client, the config file is located at /etc/i2pd/i2pd.conf. Make sure both the HTTP and SOCKS proxy are enabled, the default ports are fine.
By default I2PD will use your computer to route other people's traffic through the I2P network and use your bandwidth. To disable this type
Code: 
notransit=true
I tried the SOCKS outproxy service with I2PD, but I found it to be very slow and unreliable compared to Privoxy.

The Privoxy config files are located in /etc/privoxy/config. To route all eepsite traffic through I2PD and the rest of traffic through Tor, type in the config file
Code: 
forward-socks5 / localhost:9050 .
forward-socks5 .i2p localhost:4447 .
Be sure to add the period at the end of each line.
Privoxy uses the SOCKS proxy for Tor and I2P, but only outputs HTTP packets on its listening port, which is not compatible with WebSocket traffic, which blocks SneedChat.

Make sure to start and enable Tor, I2P, and Privoxy at startup using your init manager.

In your browser, set the HTTP and HTTPS proxy to 127.0.0.1 on port 8118 and SOCKS proxy to 127.0.0.1 on port 9050.
If you have conflicting ports with other programs, change the port numbers accordingly.

Congrats! You can now tor, eep, and sneed all in the same window without having to change browser profiles.
To reduce your fingerprint, use letterboxing in Librewolf to make your footprint be nearly identical to someone using the regular Tor Browser.
In theory, WebSocket on an eepsite would not be able to be loaded, since the SOCKS proxy only uses the Tor network. Although this is not a problem since I don't know of any eepsites that use WebSocket.

Posting this problem again but I can't access general chat. It says I can't join it and to report any problems here. I've literally never talked in there so it couldn't be from a ban. It's the same issue MrReeShopper is having.
 
Was chat disabled? I no longer can open any of the rooms and am greeted with this instead.

You cannot join this room. Try refreshing. If you still have issues, post in the Sneedchat Discussion thread.

Then when I try manually using the link I get this:
You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action.

I think this is the result of being jannie'd. Though I would like to make sure it's not an error before jumping to that conclusion.
 
Had a weird bug happen where I couldn't edit or delete my own messages. Refreshing the page fixed it.

Not as much of a complaint as it is a formal request, but many of us Keno Kasino regulars would like the channel reverted to the state it was previously in where you needed to be logged in to see chat. We are unsure if this change was intentional or not. Thanks!
