We already missed you. Where have you been 😂

works fine today. my inet cx is sometimes shaky, sometimes non-existent. i’ll come back later.

They claim it’s to thwart pedos and hate speech.

But let’s not get it twisted, it is about monitoring and controlling the money supply. They want us on their system, not our own system.

this looked like a chatroom [=meeting] but nobody there… or should i use it to send you a offline message ?

I loved it. Its one of the few alternatives to commercial swappers. .onion was under flooding (ddos) attack though. 2.2% slippage. The code is based on BSX (basic swap dex) AFAIK. Used small amounts. Else, Haveno recommended, but be prepared for higher slippage.

Edit: meeting time?

There is even a more political answer. To resist indoctrination the most powerful way is to organize. Organization is difficult even under best of circumstances these days. F2F networks may be an option.

I am actually glad you bring this up. You almost give the answer yourself, because RS is not a federated platform.

Thinking inside the dichotomy of censor-or-not i agree with you. But it is possible to step outside this box. In RS you don’t have one entity maintaining a blocklist, but every user maintains a whitelist of 25-50 friends. You wouldn’d accept a pedo as a friend, do you? And I suppose you wouldn’t want people of bad character to maintain a blocklist FOR YOU either.

It might be a new concept to some influenced by the current zeitgeist promoting antisocial behaviour that friendship must be earned. Avoiding this efford, taking the easy way out and delegating responsibility to a distant authority they have no vote in, however, makes people into a disconnected mass very much powerless.

RS might look retro, but under the hood enables democratic and trusted relationships which are under constant attack by social engineering these days. Imagine being locked down during the next virus and confined to reddit 24/7 and other “social” media. How would you feel about that?

which client do you use?

I respect that. But I am also around long enough: Flooding attacks never lasted long in the past and did not cause permanent disruption. Iet’s not call it hacking, its plain old overloading. After 3-5 days its over usually and admins learnt a lot in that time. (Run a stressnet node!)

And BTW trocador.app is loading as fast as ever here. All the best, your customers just need patience.

This doesn’t add up:

nobody else noticed the inconsistencies?! They are running a business, they need to comply. And now playing stupid! Getting free ads with FUD. This doesn’t add up, indeed.

Edit: It does make a great deal of sense, however, if you think the big bros (not troc) are trying to sell “Cybersecurity”. Before they start selling, they create the need first. It works the same way every time: they sell you wars, peace, vaccines, security, privacy, co2 certs or even your own slavery. What to us looks like false flags — to them its all good business practice.

The longer answer is: there might be times when users want to DELEGATE some functionality TEMPORARILY to confidents and software should ENABLE this feature. In a digital voting system you may not want to vote on every little issue. The critical design choice is here to deliver the full software package to endusers, so they can take back responsibility whenever they choose to. Next the software needs to be enduser friendly and not discourage the user in any way to exercise his or her full power.

Whenever you hear “client” to describe your app, chances are you don’t get the full package.

The short answer is: NOT YOUR NODE, NOT YOUR RULES

“federated” has been used lately to mindfuck ppl into believing they are free and decentralized. A federated government is not a democracy and a federated protocol doesn’t set u free. It’s the old server-client paradigm.

I sent you a PM.

tor is built-in and required for easy peer discovery. RS is not unmaintained, who told you that? Its on OpenSuse.

he’s online; make sure you use version 0.6.7 [latest appimage 2024-02-10]

Server setup is easy and would help storing offline mail. In the end it’s about rebuilding models of trust. Trust can be managed very fine grained, like in RL. Its much different than anything else.
