          There is a Firefox extension that does automatically (although it seems to be a bit unreliable). Maybe someone can extract that part into a library and make a not with it.

              Blocking tor at the firewall level isn't difficult. Anything with packet capture can do it.

              They can inspect the target ip but then u can just bridge it. I wrote a tor implementation from raw websockects.

                IMO bridgy is not well designed. The fact that it requires both the follower and the followee to specifically opt in basically makes it DOA. Both Mastodon and BlueSky are completely open and public in terms of post visibility, so bridgy should have been designed to require explicit opt outs from anyone who didn't want their content bridged.

                The fediverse hoa had a bit of a problem with it, ignoring the fact that federation is opt out by default.

                  This is why fedi needs to support federation over tor

                  since most federation happens over the backend, you could access an instance based outside the usa through tor.

                    I think he plays the awkward card to actual cringe levels at times but I'll also watch Cody's Showdy so that can't be it entirely.

                    Can't say I love him, but I do appreciate the work he does.

                        Wait, the Mozilla guy who got pressured to resign over opposition to gay marriage is the Brave guy?? Fuck him lol.

                        Unsurprising he’s also a dipshit about COVID.

                          Honestly I might get more active in posting, cause some of the content I wanna see is not active/has one person posting on the community. I rarely post on any social media, but the fediverse just sparks something in me to make it a more active place.
