Good to see us back on clear thanks to our dear Chinese overlords (Jackie Chan Adventures was pretty kino, tbh)
But anyone else unable to get to uquu dot onion since this been up? On Brave+Tor, at least. Felt more secure and fast tbh but it might just be down during the dimensional server merge

Yeah my tor connections were all fragged this morning thought it was just a bad case of tor being shit for Josh's connections but now that I see we're on top (lol) it could be that. Will stick with tor if it truly is our last line of secure connection, use top when I'm mobile or through brave. (brave wasnt working even through a private browse so I decided to give tor a try.)

Well my gen-x ass just downloaded tor and found the site... I do wonder if I did it right though since I can also access the site on normie internet with .top. If this extension takes a shit thru boomer net, will it do the same on tor?

No, TOR is a totally different network. Thats why it was able to stay online when .net went down.

It's ultimately connecting to the same site and CDN and all of that, it's just that the route from you to there is over a different network. Josh still owns the .net domain, but hasn't moved DNS services over to somewhere else, perhaps in the probably vain hope that they'll come to their senses and quit lying.

Huge relief to get access but I know it's just going to fuck up somehow in a day.

All the videos require a captcha and it just goes on and on forever, what's up with that?
 
Honestly feels like a turning point in internet history. Used to be pretty fierce Libertarian vibes online, the realization a global network could be an incredible social equalizer. Boomers in government didn't know and didn't care.

Now with all the corporatization online and all the money involved I feel like a dinosaur. Like the ideas I believe in are relics from an ancient time. There's no longer even a facade of searching for truth. Journos just republish the most outlandish claims and run them by "fact checkers"

I never thought hosting a web forum would be illegal in my country, it's like everyone tightened the noose at the same time.

The internet has been dying for a while now, and it shows.

Null really hit the nail on the head, there has been no innovation or new ideas in at least a decade now because of the tech oligarchy and by now I think the damage is irreversible. I mean, what exact point is there to go online to begin with if all that's available is censored and manipulated to fit the current narrative?

I don't even really use it much beyond KF, banking, and watching videos on YouTube.

No social media, no "smart" appliances, no cloud, none of that shit...hell the only thing I buy on Amazon now is books for my Kindle. We could roll back to 2005 tomorrow and I'd be completely fine.

I am a completely retard in everything that is tech and internet so maybe one of you guys can answer me my question:

How safe is KF on Tor against DDoS or other attacks?

Looks liek DDoS is taken care of. We're on some libertarian freedom of speech absolutist service right now 🤣 but man what a crazy few days. It's like that Russian Bolshevik once said: there are decades when nothing happens and then there are weeks when decades happen.

Not at all. Tor is for security, not for resilience against DDoS and has a lot of overhead that is fairly easily exploited to DDoS sites.

There might be a tiny bit of protection in that most of these retards are just too dumb even to use it much less to DDoS it, but the people we have to worry about don't have that problem.

Im right there with you. it is shocking how little i use the internet. other than KF, banking, and youtube, the only other thing is some occasional piracy, looking up programming stuff when i forget syntax/ library APIs, and occasionally skimming Wikipedia on something i need a refresher on.

other than severely missing KF, im not sure my life would be hugely affected if the internet died. im old enough to have grow up at a time when the internet wasn't used much outside of schools and libraries. i can remember what that life was like and would be okay going back to it.

I'm also glad the threads on Keffals and Brickface were locked. Now things can cool off, and we can return to our regularly scheduled shitposting.

This'll also keep the retards away.

I was in favor of keeping them up until sleeper accounts started posting threats and Cloudflare refused to acknowledge they were removed.

My biggest complaint with TOR is that, on mobile, you need to long-tap the like button to do anything other than a regular like. (Dumb, Autistic, Optimistic, Islamic Content, etc.) but the long-tap time is the same for the reaction menu as it is for the "open in new tab" menu. So, mobilefags such as myself can only give regular likes because there doesn't seem to be an option in TOR mobile to extend the long-tap time to separate it from the reaction menu. I would rate this post autistic... if I could!
