I tried that already, but I couldn’t take the long loading time
For me after the initial load (which is like 30 to 60 secs) it works just as fast as most websites. Only media takes a while / doesn't work, but that is too be expected if your requests and answers are routet through multiple points before reaching their destinations.
This is roughly my experience speed wise:



Perhaps the route you had was a slow one...

Goddamn this shit won't stop. null needs to stop fucking announcing shit to everyone. dot net came back under diamwall then died four hours later because that sick freak faggot faggels won't piss off, china caved and killed dot top, the onion and dot st are still having problems. I'm tired of this shit, the obvious thing I won't say here needs to happen in order for this shit to end.

China caving still fucks with me. Far more so than Russians. The raw international cooperation this is getting is incredible.

Nah, with the kiwifaggots shitting up the Fediverse, specifically Poast, I've decided the whole site can go down the shitter as far as I'm concerned. Null had better cull the herd quick or he's gonna be in for trouble soon....
If you think the troons or the government won't come for the fediverse eventually with or without kiwifarms as a part of it you're foolish. If this decentralized setup can't stand up to the threat now it's just a matter of time until they fuck it up later. I 100% bet once their ban hate speech boner cools down regulating fiction will be next. No they do not care about the 1st amendment, politicians regularly pass laws violating it.

If they'd stop trying to dox us for loli, it would not be an issue.

I think part of it is because kf, throughout its lifetime, made themselves a lot of enemies. Hell, even here there are some people who dislike them. Im not blaming kf but theyve always been very antagonistic

...It could also be that they're sitting on some pretty spicy secrets that the powers that be dont want revealed
Probably a combination of the 2 :shrug:

That and I see they went to poa st and started demanding the owner ban loli art, KW is making it very hard to defend them. Advocating for loli bans is my 3rd rail.

If they keep it up I'm going to stop giving a fuck about their plight. I only defend them because you have to defend the undesired speech to protect your own, purely selfish reasons. I personally hate kiwifarms and wouldn't had cared if they died under far less alarming circumstances such as if null just didn't want to pay for the servers anymore, none of this twitter/lucas/government ddos/blackmail shit.

It speaks to my own lack of self-preservation that, even if a section of users do pull this shit (from what I've seen it's mostly people who haven't gotten over Internet Bloodsports shit), I'd still advocate for them to not be taken down simply by virtue of not wanting places taken off the Internet for arbitrary reasons at the behest of mob rule. It'd be nice if that was reciprocated, but at no point did I ever anticipate that. Nobody who cares about freedom of speech and expression as an ideal should care if it's reciprocated. This is a moral imperative for me, as gay as that sounds.

Tit-for-tat shit is the path to madness, and has led to the wholesale censorship of large parts of the Internet before. I won't blame you if you disagree and are willing to just treat this as some Us vs. Them tribalism. It's a lot to ask if you aren't nearly as invested.

The sooner everyone on here learns proper OPSEC the better. Using a password manager like keepassxc, minimizing the amount of potentially identifiable information, and simply keeping unique user names on unlinked accounts are all good places to start. Oh and paranoia, I ask myself daily if I've said or posted something online that could triangulate my ass to the nearest 100mi or so.

I know this is how it should be. I've calmed (and redirected) my anger for now. Follow null's updates only, ignore the users bs, remind myself at all times the government and idiots like lucas are the bigger threat, that's how I did it before this ongoing crap.

The dot st domain actually worked for me yesterday. I haven't been able to use the site for a week. Now it won't work and the browser says it "refused to connect". :senko_sigh:

As far as I understood it, the setup is currently done in very specific way to prevent the DDoS or something (Josh explained it yesterday).
Try a few times then clear cache/cookies or switch your browser.
There is also the onion link that usually work. Either use Tails or if you don't care too much about privacy you can use Brave

Do you know of anything that works decently on Chrome OS? I'm too tech illiterate to install Linux on it. The Chromestore apps work well on my machine but they're phasing them out and moving to Google Playstore apps which work terribly for me.

Well there seems to a few ways after looking for a bit:
  1. Try .st some more (seems to be down rn, but it's the only clear-net way that seems to work somewhat consistently)
  2. Tor
    1. Use the Android Version since COS should be able to run that (Probably the easiest and least involved one)
    2. Install Brave (I have no idea if it works that well)
    3. Put Tails on a USB and boot into that (It should work as long as you have and X86 CPU and are able to get into the bios. You might be able to it on ARM this will probably be more involved)
    4. There are also some more technical ways to set up virtual box and install Linux apps (you mentioned you are too tech illiterate to install Linux so that might be a bit to complicated)
Other than that I know too little about COS to really know how to help. Also I don't have a ChromeBook to test my "solutions" so do them at your own risk.

On a side note: I can highly recommend sitting down for a couple of hours and learn some Linux.

Site hacked, tor down and now the troon mafia is attacking any other means null has to fight back yet the fucking lemming retard masses cheer in favor of all of this, supporting the fag who wants to convince your 6 YEAR OLD SON to cut off his dick, grow tits, put on panties and dance in front of middle aged guys in speedos. I already had a negative opinion of 99% of humanity but this cements that'll never change.
