For weeks, I can’t reach qwant maps anymore. Is it down for you guys as well? Does anyone know anything? There isn’t even a mention on their main pages of it anymore. They just purged everything without further notice. Is that the same experience for you? I’m accessing with a VPN from within france.
I use Tor every once in a while for basic web browsing just to add some regular traffic to the network and not just dark web traffic. I mainly use it for Reddit as they lock to block me because of my VPN IP but don’t block Tor IP and occasionally other stuff. I know Tor is made so that everyone looks the same but, I am not...

It allows for fetching posts and profiles from Threads without the need of any browser-side JavaScript. It’s written in Rust, and powered by the spools library, which was co-developed between me and my girlfriend. Here’s a...
I miss the days of VHS and DVD shelfs in homes, for example. If you bought the tapes and had them in your home, no corporate entity could alter those tapes without your consent, monitor how many times you watch them, sell your data to whomever they please without your knowledge, roll out new mandatory conditions to a ‘user...
