dr|z3d new shiny in the latest + dev build. on /netdb, we now have a per country ff count.
StormyCloud bad reddit
dr|z3d about time people stopped using it.
cumlord use the lemmy
dr|z3d I vary rarely bother with reddit anymore. when they decided you need to permit their ad servers to login, that did it for me. or whatever restrictions they're placing on logging in.
cumlord I only venture over there for i2p things but too much of a hassle to post anything now, I give up
dr|z3d yeah, exactly that.
dr|z3d no need to venture over to their site, either. we have a few (mostly) functional instances on i2p.
cumlord There’s been i2p interest in fediverse, easier to answer qs there
cumlord Thankful for the Reddit frontends 🙏
eyedeekay re: frontends, the last interactive frontend worth a damn is RedReader
eyedeekay It's basically the only third-party app that managed to get an exemption to the API fees
eyedeekay Because it's handicapped-accessible IIRC
dr|z3d interactive meaning login-enabled?
eyedeekay Basically you can do anything you would normally do on Reddit if you've got some need to interact with it
eyedeekay It's actually a pretty nice app and I think they're going to add support for activitypub stuff like lemmy soon
eyedeekay Because there's probably a ticking clock on that API fee exemption
dr|z3d we really need to start directing people that are using i2p away from reddit.
snex make a reddit replacement on i2p
dr|z3d we've already got one. it's called ramble.
eyedeekay Yeah. I'd like to do it in such a way that it makes some noise for the alternative-of-choice, but I'm not sure how to do that
eyedeekay snex if somebody wanted to look at what I did with dendrite, and do that the same thing to gotosocial... that might be pretty cool
eyedeekay What's ramble run on, is it a postmill thing?
dr|z3d yup, postmill.
eyedeekay Are they maintaining a fork somewhere?
snex what is gotosocial
dr|z3d easiest way to direct people is to put something in the reddit sidebar.
dr|z3d are they? who is they?
eyedeekay ramble or whoever is running ramble
eyedeekay the original postmill is dead as far as I know
dr|z3d it isn't.
snex is there a reason they didnt just call it reddit.i2p
eyedeekay Oh really, I must have old/wrong news
eyedeekay No shit. Well that's good news to me
dr|z3d the developer had an issue with a different platform that "borrowed" a chunk of code without attribution, so she took it offline for a while. that got resolved.
eyedeekay Glad it worked out, I like postmill
eyedeekay snex re: gotosocial it's basically a mastodon-like activitypub server in Go
eyedeekay but the neat thing is:
eyedeekay since activitypub is just talking over HTTP, the process for setting up activitypub-over-I2P is essentially identical to the process of setting up dendrite-over-I2P or any other application that talks over HTTP
eyedeekay There's a "Dialer" you have to replace somewhere, and a "Listener" you have to replace somewhere, and sometimes an exemption you have to make when the application needs to talk to itself
snex you would think that all of these things would just let you use n http proxy in settings
eyedeekay I mean sure you can do it that way, every Go application honors the http_proxy environment variable unless expressly told not to
eyedeekay But then you can't do things like give your dendrite server a different address when federating with different servers
dr|z3d sure you can.
dr|z3d just run a single instance with multiple nginx passthrus.
eyedeekay Ouch, yeah I guess you could do that
eyedeekay I think it's harder lol
cumlord eyedeekay on redirecting away from Reddit -the piracy subreddit semi moved to divisions by zero
eyedeekay I don't think I'm familiar with that
cumlord It’s a lemmy instance-some of the larger ones don’t federate it because of the piracy sub there. But there are potential converts there
eyedeekay could be worth looking at
dr|z3d and welcome to #saltR, too, dec.
dec thanks
T3s|4 hey dec: saw some of your posts on #i2p-dev, but have no idea what you were actually proposing. Care to explain?
