Föderation EN Mi 07.05.2025 22:07:50 #Tor and #ActivityPub experts, I'm curious to know if anyone has attempted to create a Fediverse instance as an Onion Service. I understand that server-to-server communications in ActivityPub use HTTPS POST. So I imagine the sticking point would be routing server-to-server communications over the Tor network from, say, mastodon.social to valencia.onion. Is this a problem with a trivial solution? Or perhaps an intractable one? |

Föderation EN Mi 07.05.2025 22:46:54 @mellifluousbox @BlueDot we did! And there is documentation on running Mastodon as an Onion service, in fact. I do not know how current or recently-tested this is, but have been meaning to go deeper on this at some point. https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/optional/tor/ |
