the issue with the https is not a simple regex one. the issue is that the backends talk to the server securely via https, otherwise it would be submitting internet traffic unencrypted. which means that the nginx server is telling php that it's using https. which means that xenforo is rewriting URLs with the https:// protocol. so I have to find some way to lie to php.

tor is not my priority. i'm sorry, i have 10 million fucking things to do. the site working on clearnet reliably is an issue and tor becomes the top priority when clearnet is fucked. i work all day every day and I must practice opportunity cost with my time.

should add floating text to this thread like you have for ralph's subforum saying: "stop asking about tor"

I airgapped, ran a cleaner, loaded Edge, tried to access .net Incognito, still the same, "Not Secure" and http:// instead of https://.

I started up Edge just to try this and it does seem to use http instead of https when entering just kiwifarms.net. Forcing https by manually entering https://kiwifarms.net seems to work.

That said, Edge is a fucking pile of shit and I wouldn't use it for anything. Just recently I had to delete a fucking registry key to keep it from immediately crashing, after it updated itself.

i... i can sneed?
clearly jersh is immune to troons because the farms always seem to bounce back
hey that rhymes, troon-immune guarantee
 
Bit of a nitpick but it seems like there are different front pages on different nodes.
Some of them have the Skycycle featured video, others have the Darell Brooks vid. Some have the message on the top about fixing errors while others don't.
Besides that there aren't any issues that I've encountered so far. Shit runs pretty smooth for a mesh network on TOR.
 
based tor is usable again, but trying to access kf.net on clearnet just gave me this error:

  1. Images and other media from the last hours before the October 22 downtime appear to all be broken. An example is this post in this very thread, but I see the same pattern on other threads.
  2. Probably mentioned already, but the domains in the footer are out of date. .top is still listed as primary, long after Elliot Fong's coethnics killed it.
  3. (Edited to add.) The profile pics in SneedChat load from uploads.kiwifarms.net even though we're on Tor (and so they don't show up).

I am technically grieved with Troon Wars yet elated by latest Kiwi victory. If I could suggest an extra layer of security by prompting hackers to enter their chosen pronouns from only cisbinary options.

Give them male/female. If female, ask if they have a Y chromosome in every cell of their body, or two X chromosomes, as an actual female would. If the answers don't match up, play someone shouting the YOU WILL NEVER BE A WOMAN copypasta at top volume and IP ban them.

Gotta say Null, it's working pretty good.

I know a big part of the battle is clearnet, for the preservation of history to be easily accessible. Maybe when it goes clearnet (if you do this so many people will hate me) if there's any way to make it read only for clearnet and only post through TOR, I would do it. It would still have most of the idiot barrier, but the search engine results would still be there. Might also force some other people to use TOR.

Anytime I try to change a line of text's font size or resize an image, the post won't let me preview or post it.
 
Images seem to be loading slow, but so far clearnet functions pretty okay for me so far.
 
^^ This. Been trying for the better part of half an hour to get my regular disdained Deforest Kelley back rather than his vampiric variant.
