Using anything other than the official Tor Browser to access onion sites is sketchy and drastically reduces your anonymity (speaking as a former entry and exit node operator.) Is it open source?
I don’t think this about your anonimity but rather theirs, plus the benefits of increased censorship resistance.
I wrote about this in 2021: Tor, Practical Privacy, and Censorship Resistance
I have since learned that it doesn’t access their onion service anyways, it apparently just goes back out to the clearweb
This is huge
Pardon my ignorance, but is this not similar to visiting the current onion links via Tor, but just wrapped in their own browser so it always points to the live address?
Yeah but many people don’t know how to use Tor so this will help them.
This might prove very useful for my non-tech-savvy friends and family members (yes, using Tor is too complicated for some of them).
It’s kind of disappointing, even with an app still requires an account.
I recently found out about annas-archive.org, which seems better, could anyone share their opinions or experiences on this?
I have used Anna’s archive some to great success. I’ve yet to not find what I’m looking for there if its a book. I’ve had to try a few downloads on occasion but there have been a few options so that’s fine
I still continue using Tor for accessing z-library but good to know.
Now I just need something like this for my favorite video streaming sites
