Ok, so by visiting a server you are sharing your IP (obviously you could use VPN/Tor to prevent that). By clicking your username I can see your posts but I cannot see what you view. I’m not even sure if a server admin could see that, but they could potentially correlate your IP with the pages you request. However, I don’t think a server admin with federation would be able to see what you visit since the federated content is duplicated on your home server, so i think it would still only be visible to your server’s admin. Not 100% sure tho, hopefully someone will chime in that knows more

But this is a great example of why you need to find a server admin you trust, because servers could also run modified lemmy code or be tracking user data, etc

Stuff on activitypub (mastodon, peertube) can interact, like i think you can comment on peertube videos with mastodon account. I believe matrix can interact with activitypub too but not 100% sure

Don’t forget matrix and peertube as well!

good, i use them a lot!

I’ll be honest i haven’t read their code. So invidious is just scraping youtube to pull all the data?

I assume because its like that on matrix, just kind of a symbol of the fediverse maybe to differentiate it

Ok looks like that did the trick

Haven’t used cloud flare tunnel, but is it basically like a dydns provider with cloud flare security?

Does it have it’s own domain or is url some crazy hash looking string

Yep agreed!

I use infinity. Was a slider user (and loved it) but isn’t slide dead?

I see. Hopefully this drives adoption

Doesn’t immutable distro mean the root filesystem is readonly and programs are created with their own unqiue environment?

This post acts like the code for the OS should never change.

So if a critical CVE is reported they cant update ths OS because its supposed to be immutable?

Thats not exactly how that works. You can only connect to people seeding on i2p network. You can’t just connect to clearnet seeders from i2p

Its good that qbitt added support for it but torrenting over i2p is not new, i2psnark is built into java version and biglybt has supported i2p for years. The issue is that most seeders dont cross-seed.

Also if the guide on reddit is still going to need a vpn. Look at step 26, you are uploading to clearnet.

In order to not use a vpn you need to only connect via i2p and you are then severely limited in your use.

I would suggest just grabbing the info hash of a clearnet torrent and pasting it into i2psnark to see if it exists on i2p. If it does great! And seed that shit (you won’t need a vpn to do that) but i2p will definitely not completely replace clearnet torrenting
