    Awesome onion service! Does anyone else know of other lemmy instances hosted over tor? Only found this conversation discussing lemmy instances over .onion, and only this hackliberty instance was mentioned …

      mander.xyz has this:

      mandermybrewn3sll4kptj2ubeyuiujz6felbaanzj3ympcrlykfs2id.onion

      but it’s a disaster. Data loss. Posts go into a black hole. Use it on a read-only basis.

        Data loss and posts going into a black hole is something that you have observed in the instance, or via the Tor interface?

        The instance had some issues but I upgraded the server and I think most of those problems have reduced in frequency. But perhaps some issues remain. It would be good to know if posts are still getting lost.

        If you mean the Tor front-end: I chose the old reddit style UI because it runs without JavaScript, but I have not actually tested it much. I could look into other options if it is broken.

                I just checked it out and I see that the onion link redirects to the standard lemmy front-end. The reason I did not do that is because I think that the site breaks without JavaScript - but I wonder if that is not too bad?

                I am happy to keep up my attempt - I am just not sure as of today of how to make it actually perform well.

                  Yeah, I don’t have an issue with enabling javascript for trusted sites. I do wonder if there was a technical reason for them using the JS frontend, since you would think they’d be ideologically opposed to doing so.

                  Having an option would be great but at the end of the day as long as it works I will happily use it
