Haha I like that emote

Yes it can. I’ve been doing it for the past few months. You can also host onion services really easily with no root needed.

Here is a clone of Instagram I made for termux. It’s all inclusive and will turn your phone into a social media web server.

I’ve been testing this with 6 family members over the past 3 weeks it works really well for what it is. We have over 100 private posts. Just follow the usage instructions and you can turn your phone into a little private social media safe haven.

Here is the termux side server manager.

Archive.today clearly has a target on their back.

Its objectively a very powerful anticensorship/archiving utility and someone doesn’t like it.

It definitely works. I tested a five second audio clip at 2kbs. It’s about 15 manual copy pastes at 200 character limit…but it works.

This isn’t going to be used it’s a very manual process…but I’m glad I can do it!

So, hex encoding of the aes cipher made it bigger. base 85 is slightly smaller than 64. The goal was to make it copy paste safe I think that’s the best option

Good point, I guess using hexadecimal would shrink the data even further than using base64.

The compression was implemented to reduce the audio input drastically. It can compress audio down to 6kb/s and you can still interpret voice clearly.

I should try and optimize even further to shrink the final payload.

Here is the utility

I think it cool that I can send a audio file like this now.

You should get this.

This was written 10 years ago though for context.

It’s anyone’s guess what can be done with today’s computers.

Are you the creator? I remember seeing this awhile ago but I could not remember where to find it!

This month, Judge Elizabeth Yost Neidzwski sided with Rodriguez, declaring that the photos are indeed public records and must be accessible like any other government data.

Her reasoning was blunt: the Flock network’s surveillance scope was ‘so broad and indiscriminate’ that it captured mostly innocent citizens, not suspects.

Now both cities have switched off their cameras indefinitely.

I’ve had trouble connecting to archive.is or any mirrors unless I use Tor browser.

Here is the archived 404 article

Install and application demo links are now dead. Dm if you want help installing!

This is only possible because of the sandbox of the termux app. Unfortunately iOS has no comparable alternative to termux so it will likely never happen.

In fact, it would even be pretty difficult to develop this into a standalone app on either platform with the way application review is. There is alot of unneeded fluff that would need to be added to be compliant with policies. A self hosted service like this goes against app store policies and google play policies in a few ways.

So while IOS users can easily access the application on a onion browser, they won’t be able to host their own instance.

As far as literacy, all the client needs is a Tor browser and a invite link generated by the server operator.

For Android just use the official Tor browser

For Iphone, TOR recommends this app. https://onionbrowser.com/.

I would love to see how far I can push a single instance with hundreds of users but realistically I think this is probably best suited for a circle of close friends and family.

The server backbone gunicorn is set with 2 workers and 8 threads ( this can be modified to more or less )

But it should handle around 15 - 20 simultaneous connections smoothly. Now, if everyone is uploading all at once would definitely make it sweat.

Once the server recieves the photo is compresses is down to 100-200kb so all retrievals are pretty light weight.

Pagination really lightens the load as well. By limiting it to 10 photos per page, the server only needs to send about 1.5 mb - 2.0mb to load in a whole page of photos.

It probably can run on a standalone machine but this was made and tested specifically to run off Android to be more accessible. I may not always have a computer with me but I probably am carrying my phone.

So far in testing I am getting stable results even hosting on a cellular connection.

You can name it what ever you want 😉
