If getting banned is violence, then sure.

You should just get banned.

Go add Tor support, it’s a better use of your time, https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy

Or add to the docs how each individual instance can connect over Tor.

placing the burden of proof on me

That’s how the burden of proof works. You make a claim, you provide proof.

You are lying about your previous lies, and then stating unrelated facts to confuse people.

I am not.

“you run the tor binary” doesn’t mean “the app runs the tor binary” it means you, the user on the system

I never meant that the app has to, the user can too.

Lemmy doesn’t need Tor built-in to use Tor

No, but then the individual lemmy instances would have to bodge tor support, as I have been trying to say. And since they very likely don’t, tor based federation wouldn’t work with those instances.

their explanation in this comment does match that reality

It does.

“you run the tor binary” doesn’t mean “the app runs the tor binary” it means you, the user on the system

I’m not lying. I am stating the facts.

Tor works for apps that don’t integrate it (or its “binary”)

You run the tor binary and connect to it over socks5 and make connections to places (onion or not) through that socks5. If the app doesn’t support socks5 you need to bodge it and redirect connections from the app into socks5 through some other means.

(At least that is the old way, with arti things are changing, but it’s still in development, and when we are talking about onion services the old tor binary is still necessary)

LMAO. I spent 2-3 years deeply embedded in the Tor community, I am still on the people page. I know how it works.

Docs say Tor federation isn’t allowed

It says it isn’t “supported”. You are free to change the code to add socks5/tor support or make some bodge where it connects over tor and have your tor only network. Just don’t complain when nobody can connect to you.

Also, why are you trying to make it sound like this is a universal thing that applies to all apps?

Because it is. This is how Tor works. Do you not understand how Tor works?

You need to connect to the tor binary to make .onions work. It doesn’t just work like any other uri.

They aren’t blocking tor federation, they just haven’t added it. Tor federation is something they would have to explicitly add support for, since Tor only works over… Tor.

you’re fine with seeing bans happen to certain people, not just bots

Yeah of course

And you’re next.
