I've also recently started to do the ''''blogging'''' thing with rss, but unsure how much html to throw into the rss. I atleast added some stuff to get thunderbird and other places to properly see the newlines.
but not sure if I want to go through the effort of also throwing the images in there.
rss in question: https://xn--z7x.xn--6frz82g/blog/rss/

will say though blogging like this is more fun than when I tried to do the full article 'blogging', just a private place to soykafpost to myself is nice in the world of overly complex and annoying social media

>I've also recently started to do the ''''blogging'''' thing with rss, but unsure how much html to throw into the rss.
I think about this sometimes as well. The way I see it, there are 3 possible complications from adding HTML to RSS feeds:
1. Terminal-based RSS clients may not have html parsers that can strip out the text from the html or interpret basic html. You can test out a few terminal RSS clients to check how well they parse your html
2. HTML can include links to other resources such as images. If the user goes offline with the feeds updated, they wont get the images
3. Some RSS readers use embedded browsers which are probably too powerful for whats needed for RSS and can be abused. HTML may embed malicious scripts or other tracking elements (this is common with email)
despite these issues I still like to use some html in my RSS feed, since it gives the feed subscribers a bit of styling to look at and the images in the blog post, but try to minimize the amount of html that is sent. as usual, best to use your tools responsibly
>will say though blogging like this is more fun than when I tried to do the full article 'blogging', just a private place to soykafpost to myself is nice in the world of overly complex and annoying social media
i couldn't agree more, having your own independent blog makes the blogging experience very relaxing. you can just sit down, write your thoughts for a few minutes, add it to your site, and forget about it. no notifications, likes, upvotes or anything else to distract you all day after making a post, no pressure and no strings attached from making a post. also you can be as creative as you want on your own space

Thanks for sharing your feed, I subscribed to it. also neat, I recently tried out webbrowser not too long ago. It's in the AUR so easy enough to get working on arch machines. only played around with it for a little bit though, haven't tried using it full time for a few days to see how it works compared to other browsers.
>>54881
>im currently building my own website, but my lack of knowledge in programming isn't helping
You'll get there anon, it just takes a bit of time and getting used to. HTML is pretty straight forward, but CSS placement can be a real pain at first, and if you use a framework the learning curve starts to get pretty steep without a bit of programming and webdev background.
Your best bet is to make a site using just HTML/CSS/JS in a text editor, that will get you familiar with the basics. Once you do that, you can try out a few frameworks or static site generators and see if you can translate the pieces of your existing site into the framework. Or you can always roll your own using a bit of scripting, even just a few lines of bash and you can set up a goof framework for making web pages.
Don't give up anon, we all know this feel of starting off building websites, its painful at first but rewarding in the long run.
>Also, since I am talking about the banner, with what software can I create it?
A lot of us use GIMP to make the banners, myself included.

due to the meme way my 404 pages are handled banners that dont exist get a stretched 404 cat as banner, hopefully this motivates you to make one soon anon, clean site though. radio antenna tech remains arcane magic to me I still want to get into properly one day.
>>54881
gimp is fine but definitely less than intuitive for gifs,
for just simple use of slapping some text and graphics together in a 240x60 frame it should do though.
for gifs btw, if you do want to mess about without any plugins:
- every layer is a frame, pretty straight forward, can set delays and blends
- for viewing what it'd be like with all the frames is under filters>animation>playback
- might want to play with optimize/unoptimize to get frames out or lower size
- to save go 'export as' then .gif, and then check the 'as animation' checkbox

I like the idea with RSS. Never used it when it was popular so I don't have much memories of it besides the orange icon, but it seems like a comfy way to have a "blog". You can get my feed at https://slushbin.org/bullshit/rss

Cool projects and favicon. I hope you don't mind, but I'll add you when you have a banner cause otherwise I would kinda need to change few things on my site for it to be possible. Unless you don't expect to have it soon, then I can make a placeholder or just change my site's code.
Also, merry christmas everyone!

Oh yeah, also one last thing. I wonder how do people here feel about mobile design? I kinda got to the grim realization that between my friends most people browse the internet on their phones and I never really build anything on my site to be mobile friendly. I'm thinking right now of maybe adding mobile css to it. I know few sites here do have mobile as an option, but I wonder what others think about it.

It's very low priority for me, frankly I'm disgusted I feel I need to bother at all. However I did implement it when I overhauled my site. Basically started with W3C's responsive content example and worked it into what I wanted. It's still not finished but it does something which is better than phone users ever could have said about my site in the past.

Some responsiveness is necessarry imo. Since many people use tiling window managers, the website should adapt to different and potentially small screen sizes. It's not that hard, just don't hard code sizes that much. Some basic support will make a lot of difference.

Thanks for the tips guys, i'm try to work with gimp right now to make a banner.
Well, css is exactly what is confusing me, but I was trying to make the changes in my site directly from the files in my neocities dashboard, and there is a delay in some changes that I do for whatever reason, and I was thinking that the problem was with my code, but it was just this delay.
I will make sure to check some frameworks later though, when most of my site is finished.

As far as I'm aware, lainchan either used to have archives but doesn't anymore, or never had them. But as >>54973 said I had archives and a blog post about this a while ago. I lost some of my old site source code, but will dig through my backups to see if I still have a snapshot from when I wrote that article and upload the archives to my site

nice site, will add your site and banner on my next update to my site. also if you're interested, here is some code that will make those windows xp windows closeable when you click the close button. just throw this code at the bottom of the HTML and it will add the click events after all of the windows have been added to the DOM:

    <script>
        document
            .querySelectorAll("[aria-label='Close']")
            .forEach(closeButton => {
                closeButton.onclick = clickEvent => {
                    closeButton
                        .parentElement
                        .parentElement
                        .parentElement
                        .remove();

Reading everyone's rss posts is so fun. I also appreciate the onion and i2p mirrors, which I visit whenever I can. I have been working on a website of my own, but I haven't decided if I should create an atom feed or an rss feed. What do you guys think? I know that using html inside an rss feed is a pain, and with atom I can just embed some of the html already present in each blogpost.

I made a comfy setup by turning this upside down. I manually write the RSS and then make the server put it inside a template when someone visits the html page.
You can do the opposite fairly easily too I think. I assume just by making a css class for blog posts and attaching it to every div that holds articles you can get them to be parsed without much headache. You can make then that the <h1> tags inside those articles will be translated to <title> tags of RSS.
Although, simply by copy and pasting the article manually from html to rss you at most will spend 5 minutes extra, so it's not a big deal either way.

Alright, I posted in the thread before last without really advertising my website since I felt self-conscious about how little it had to offer lainanons. Since then, I've written more articles and improved the overall quality enough to not feel terrible about asking to be included. It's still got nothing to do with lain, cyberpunk, or hacking; it's still riddled with flagrant displays of glitterboyry and half-finished, CliffsNotes-laconic articles; but it does document a niche of internet culture, explores concepts related to it in depth, and discusses technical matters including programming - the latest of my blogposts perhaps being of interest to anyone working with static site generators. All said, I hope you guys enjoy scrolling through.

Thanks fren, I'm glad you like it!
>also, excellent single page design with your site
It's surprisingly simple for a pure CSS solution. With all the javascript monstrosities floating about, you'd think it wasn't even possible. BTW I've attached a file containing the essentials (beyond the strictly necessary caveat that section#home must be the last section on your page) if you're curious. The john-doe template buries the trick in noise and hasn't accepted an excellent pull request that fixes a bug in the scheme.
>its amazing when you can click links and it instantly "loads" the page
It was strict requirement for any template I'd use. Being a Tor user, I find myself opening a bunch of tabs at once simply because waiting for each tab in turn is too painful. It all boils down to latency being favored over bandwidth even for clearnet connections.

Can you do anything? Is everything data mining? Surely facebook survey games etc. are data mining, but posts on lainchan arn't. Why should our corperate overloads care about what Linux distributions lain use, or what web frameworks? Specially when tied to no identifiers like emails, ip addresses, usernames, cookies, etc. that are part of developing an advertising profile? Facebook isn't conducting market research on which CSS frameworks are popular among lains.

>That's what they made you think
>Unless LC is embedding third party trackers, or sharing logs/data with third parties, there is no reason to think facebook associates your posts with your IP unless you think your ISP or backbone ISPs, or Lainchans ISP is surveilling you. If your ISP is surveilling you, you should be using a VPN/Tor/ w/e. Under no circumstances does it make sense to say 'data mining'. Its just /g/ paranoia.
I mean, lets think about even ISP surveillance. Because of TLS, ISPs aren't going to see URIs, or cookies - just timing - not even content. If ISPs routinely scraped Lainchan, they could construct timing attacks and try to pair (IP,POST). What would be the point?
There is little commercial value to pairing my IPs and Posts - and its comparatively hard to do, and hard to make sense of the data - its unstructured.
Its far easier to just record the domain names I lookup or that appear in SNI. There is evidence that this is exactly what ISPs are doing because 1) They are resisting DoH by Lobbying and 2) They are preventing you from changing DNS on Mobile Devices and ISP routers. The metadata is far easier to make sense of and commercialize at scale.
When you start talking about Nation State APTs engaging in surveillance, timing attacks and content make more sense - individual analysts may be assigned to targets. What government would have any interest in doing this to lainchan or /g/ ? Although LE intrests could exist in identifying school-shooters on /b/, IB's will just cooperate, and timing attacks are out of the capability of LE anyway. /g/ contains no government intelligence (and no intelligence period). Its not worth surveilling.
Either way the point of internet fora , and image boards is to have these kind of discussions, and ranting about being data mined by (((THEM))) isn't a reason to not have these discussions. Even if I were being surveilled by government actors with individual analysts reading my posts for content, I would still have discussions about my favorite frameworks, and etc. Its not illegal, and what would the point of lainchan even be without these things?
Information exposed on lainchan is probably not of interest to virtually anyone except cyberpunk nerds. Most surveillance is pervasive mass surveillance, and automated, not individual taylored to collect decentralized log hanging fruit.

that was really a lazy reading of what was said about. AWS is surveilling all VPSs and mining databases for content and logs to associate (IP,POST) still isn't interesting b/c of how implausible it is - same problem. Unstructured content is diffuse locations. Its too hard to be worth it commercially. Which just leaves CIA or w/e who also doesn't have the budget to collect all unstructured content on the planet and task analysts, or the desire to surveil /g/. They would probably pay not to read our rants.

That problem is easy to solve. If you believe appleman1234 is spying on you to learn your favorite javascript frameworks, and you object to this, simply don't post on lainchan.
To me all this (((ThEy)]} stuff really just degrades the board and disrupts useful behavior. Grassroots cyberpunks want to create independent websites and talk about technology in a world of Web 2.0 commericialized serveilance apps - Nah. Its data mining don't do it. Thats a pretty unempowering perspective. No anonymous cyberpunk movement can exist if participants don't participate.
OPSEC can impose heavy costs, and there is a right amount of OPSEC for everything. Discussing web technologies on an imageboard doesn't require resistance to state actors, but LARPing as though lainchain was the base of operations for a large scale cyber-terrorist movement does.

>>56425 is right as in basic html is responsive for all sizes by default, but it's also boring and unless you hate having the ability to express yourself by any other means than text, you should look into media queries. It doesn't even have to be difficult. Take a look here
https://www.w3schools.com/css/tryit.asp?filename=tryresponsive_mediaquery_orientation2
put your cursor in the middle and resize these tabs a bit. Should give you an idea how the stuff works.
You can just do most of your css as you normally would, and then just put

    @media only screen and (orientation: portrait) {}

and add in there all the css changes you would expect if someone screen had portrait dimension, which is what all phones pretty much have. The example in the link I posted has the changes set to landscape though, so keep that in mind.

This is really a "less is more" kind of situation. As long as the font-size is scaled correctly, the less assumptions you make about the device displaying your content (height, width, available fonts, specific browser, ...) the more devices you will be able to support without any special effort.

its fun. its a way to drive more traffic to your own site by participating. Its nice when peoples sites link to other peoples sites cause it makes it possible to find them, especially with small sites.
I'm too young to really comment on this, but my understanding is that, back in the day, site discoverability strongly hinged on having links to friends sites and blogrolls and webrings and things of this sort. Traveling link to link is what we call surfing the web.
The advent of good search engines, and now things like faceboot and twatter have changed the environment, but for reactionary webdesign, webrings are a good way to go.

I wrote about this here an there on my site:
https://yukinu.com/blog/why-webrings.html
https://yukinu.com/blog/web-clubs.html
One advantage webrings have over modern search engines is that search engines can only really point you to content that is similar in form to your search query, but not similar in feel. A search engine query such as "lain-esque websites run by individuals" won't produce good results, but if you can find a webring you can get content of that same feeling but in slightly different forms and in many different unique styles.

Hello Frenz. Hidden Corner will migrate to a new server since Debian fuarrrked up real hard. You can still acess it as of January 3rd 2022. I have backed up the Tor and i2p keys, but I have never tried migrating these to another server. Not to mention that I don't know exactly how to backup the Yggdrasil key yet (i suppose i just have to backup the "yggdrasil.conf" file). In case I lose the keys and end up with new addresses, I'll let yall know.
Thank you all.

apt is broken due to a package that can't be removed because it outputs errors every time I do anything with apt. Yes, I spent countless hours on forums trying to troubleshoot, but it seems unfixable. I'll use this opportunity to migrate to another distro since Debian repos don't have lots of packages that I need and I'm not experienced with Debian. Not moving to a BSD (even though I should) because I have no experience with it at all.

May I recommend Guix or Nix for package management? They work outside of their dedicated distros just fine (foreign-distro mode) and have a decent package selection; they're also very easy to add packages to.
The host distro doesn't matter particularly much for those two, however I think Guix is Linux/Hurd only for now.

thats because it is, you either setup a guestbook or rely on people to mail in replies to your brewing soykaf. thats the only low effort/simple solution.
I guess you could make something similar to a guestbook under each blog, if you do them dedicated page style, or allow people to select a blogpost in the guestbook they wish to reply to

Lainon, the comments thingy is a big problem for static blogs, you shouldn't be using disqus.
Some options are here:

if you can, try out GIMP for making a banner. It's a bit clunky to get used to at first but is free and open source software. paint.net is fine too, but if I remember right its not free and open source software, always good to give FOSS a shot if you can
>>56906
>what's the best way to enable comments for my blog posts? Disqus?
What >>56915 and >>56927 said. also stuff like disqus requires javascript for the comments to load so some wont be able to use or see the comments (some lains keep javascript disabled). Disqus free tier in particular places ads on your site, so be a bit cautious with these things.

Wow, the first blogshit with decent layout and more than 200 characters long articles worth reading through I see here. Site's age tells me the owner isn't Lainchan local at all, maybe you're an impostor who fond this site somewhere else.
Author's obsession with blurry JPEGs even for 2D graphics screenshots with lots of flat color that coincides with WebP bashing based on third-hand outdated (2014) info on Wikipedia is a very wild throw, considering you shell off 15 bucks for a VPS each month. Use damn PNGs when they are more efficient (see pic related, really simple stuff).
Also, GOOGLE IS BAD MMKAY attitude is a really silly considering that they can afford to hire autists who do all the low-level math stuff at competitive salaries that won't be offered at Mozilla or whatever freetard institutions with pink-haired failed CS majors, corporate algorithms actually turn out very good at delivering compression whether they serve their users to US Government or not, WebP was made for handling thumbnails mostly, the original image can stay whatever format it came in, and until web browsers support JPEG XL which incorporates brunsli compression, developed by who would you guess, an evil Google, it is here to be.

Wow, thanks, I guess :) I am the owner of the site, though, used to lurk around the /cyb/ threads until that went to hell and back.
Well, the problem with Google is simple: personal hygiene. That doesn't mean Google doesn't have cool projects, it just means I will not touch them unless compelled by a court order. Google is the cancer of the web in various ways and for various reasons.
And the problem with the images is not that their size would be a problem for my current VPS, the thing is I have (or at least had) to move servers sometimes (did you read my post when Twitch requested my article about them taken down by threatening my hosting company and the new hosting company and their ISP to) and I have to keep that in mind. Basically I try to keep my website below 500MB of data. Because why not?
Besides, optimizing is such a lainon thing to do and let's be honest, nobody looks at one of my screenshots or photographs for pixel-perfect data. I do have the original images and maybe someday I will change how they are exported but for now things are ok the way they are.

WebP is a clown format that was made because someone thought they could simply take a video codec and apply it to images. Consequently it is suboptimal at nearly every niche it attempts to occupy.

a) You are not saving anything by turning flat color images into jpegs. Edge fry makes them (images taken from [1]) ugly on screen. Do you have PNG originals for these screenshots? Dithered images you've put in 2014-esque hipster fashion remind me of dithered images on solar-powered version of lowtech magazine [2]. There, all images were treated the same, most of the graphics that require reading or color cues have lost their meaning in the name of dubious power-consumption optimization despite main website up and running, hosted on TypePad, behind DDoS protection that doesn't let you read articles unless you enable javascript when your source IP happens to be on some made-up naugty lists.
b) 500 Megabytes is around 4 cents in NVME SSD storage, less in hard drives, why is that even a question for local backups? Modern VPSs come with many gigabytes of storage. Additionally, you probably should not use VPS from EU countries and especially anything in the big data center hubs since they obey walmartia laws and have quick-reacting abuse departments.
c) Your footer (anything below main article body, all those "recommended articles" and other fluff injected in usual fashion of "customer retention" metrics on regular blogshit sites that earn money by selling your data) fills whole browser window. Well, not the whole 1000 pixel high default Tor Browser viewport on my screen which is rather unusual due to personal setup. Most people don't even have that because they are most likely to use 1080p or it's scale derivatives, or something worse on something like a laptop, add default window manager decorations, taskbars, window title bar, fat finger-friendly touch interfaces, late Mozilla tabs atrocity, and what are they left with, something in the 700-800 dots vertical space? This is approximately how much your footer occupies. Make it a collapsible outline or something.

Thumbnails for photographs, it's the only real niche this format should be used for. 40% size reduction in comparison to uh, PNG(!) thumbnails used on chans like this one for example. You don't complain about thumbnails for videos, do you? Video is a series of photographs taken in quick succession.

isnt this the comfy webring thread where people post links and banners for their websites ? Currently it looks more like the angry people arguing about dumb things thread. Nothing wrong with debating the finer points of web image optimization but maybe make a seperate thread for it how bout.
Personally I liked the variety that sizeof.cat provides in this group, its clearly related but its a bit more than a lot of the sparse homepages people here are putting out (nothing wrong with sparse homepages and just-starting blogs, of course). And the dithered images are pretty cool ! I like the look of the cityscapes, and just as an illustration that makes the page a little more interesting and eyecatching and that is unique they add a bit of character and uniqueness.
Its cool. Whatever. I imagine if we went through and audited all the sites in this thread we'd have a huge number of quibbles to pour over, but most of us are just amateurs trying to have a little fun and contribute to the internet community, doing things ourselves, not always perfectly but so long as it works well enough we can be satisfied, and enjoying the imperfect but novel creations of our peers.

How do you feel about "tracking"?. Right now I keep no track of what, who, when visits my site. Reason is I'm against unecessary tracking, and the only valid reason I could think of is security.. Yet I'm kinda getting curious where people are visiting me from since I had a little spike in on site activity last month. I though about simply logging site visits and the referer header since that would be enough for me. Does anyone here use some kind of tracking?

W3schools are SEO devils, but their tutorials are good and straightforward. Take a look at
https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_basic.asp
css you honestly just have to try yourself. try making your style and if you get stuck look for help online how to do. It allows so much freedom to do whatever you want that I don't think you can make a comprehensive tutorial. Basics are easy though. Learn about color, font families, font sizes, margin and padding.
Also, I think someone should make a small introduction to the webring for these things. Few question get asked every thread and they could be answered in the first post.

Utilizing third party resources, namely Google fonts is bad practice lainon, since Google is Satan itself. Other fellow lainons also found out (see >>57165).

As a friendly tip, download the fonts you want to use inside your neocities folder and reference it inside your CSS. Good luck!

maybe it would be a good idea to make a centralized website hosting all the banners? and make a widget of some kind that folks can just embed into their pages. if there are multiple backups on the banners on other servers it shouldn't be too much of an issue. and if someone wants to add a banner, they just fill out a form to have it added.

The fonts themselves are fine, its that you are using the ones hosted on googles server. Google hosted fonts are part of the Googles analytics machine. You can download them and self host on your site, preventing google from tracking the users of your site

get a cheap vps. point domain to ip of vps and use HAproxy to route to your home server public ip. optionally setup wireguard and have HAproxy point to client ip on server. with HAproxy you can also have subdomains all on same host like foo.bar.xyz > 10.0.0.1:8000 bar.bar.xyz > 10.0.0.1:8080.
I have a vps with pfsense, HAproxy, wireguard server. other vps are on wireguard network with host firewall blocking all incoming WAN connections. services are hosted on tunnel IP. home firewall has tunnel to vps firewall so i can host home stuff behind it.

wow looks like someone made use of the laingraph script I tried to make
I know it looks like soykaf, but I have to admit I'm not skillful enough to write a better script. Maybe I'll try revisiting it once I have time on my hands. Maybe someone else can help improving it too, it would potentially mean having a tool to generate a visual for the interconnectedness of the webring.
>>57145
if this is indeed the laingraph script I tried to make: it naively tries to find a webring page by looking for the string "webring", which is not robust at all. I've had a better idea that I never implemented, which would be to collect external links (not the same base domain) on a webring page, crawl each external link (all their pages) and try to find a page where the original domain is referenced back to detect it as a webring page.
Many new people joined the webring, I'll be sure to update my site sometime soon to reflect that. I definitely dig some of the designs and some of the content.

I'm still alive, I just have an identiy crisis with my site so it's offline for a while, will turn it on soon. What I'm struggling with is that my site was just this weird bloated thing that had like 3 half working things, so I decided to streamline it into just a radio station, and it works now (with one minor bug), but I kinda realized I don't have enough music to make the thing interesting, and what I had my friend called "white boy music", which made me laugh but also make me feel I need to have something better. I kinda thought about maybe making it so that everyone can upload some audio file, and the radio will simply play these sounds randomly after I currate that they don't have anything that's extemely out of the line. But I am not so sure if that's interesting. I know most of the audio will be porn moaning and nazi songs, so yeah.
In short, kinda lost on what to do with my site.

It was nonstop tripfagging in the majority of threads so far, what's wrong about it? Many of the webring participants have made their sites because they wanted to construct an identity in the first place

linux22.net is really cheap, but i haven't used it
i've been with virmach for years and had very little issues. their choice of OS templates is super outdated EOL linux machines but if you go with ubuntu you can upgrade it to a newer version with apt or you can also login to the solus control panel and they have some more newer ISO images you can mount to install instead (almalinux et al).

NTA, but most pointers dangle to the bottom-right, so it's a bit off-putting having a pointer that's effectively flipped. Also, I immediately assumed the top right of the quill/feather was where the actual tip was since usually weird cursors dangle to the bottom-left. I think a lot of this boils down to how the muted colors of the quill make it hard to notice the details. Perhaps adding a flare effect around the quill tip would help draw attention to it. Also, nice site - I look forward to seeing more content.

Alright, just quick update that I'm now back and alive. This time around just the radio and guestbook. I'll be adding more songs in the following days. As of writting now it's like 18, so it can get a bit repetitive.
https://slushbin.org/
>>57491
Thanks for that website. I really like it. I might actually put an irc chat on my page too. I'm still wondering about if I should allow song upload as right now I'm on and off about it in my mind. I'll think about it.
>>57631
Nothing, we probably like similar music. Just in my head everything I had a hand in making has to be somewhat unique since if it isn't I get the feeling I'm wasting people's time. It's less about music and more about me.

https://arisu.world/ is hosted on my systems and is currently up. Incredibly, you happened to click on it EXACTLY during the time I was doing my scheduled maintenance for the other dozen or so services I run. In fact, your timestamp lines up exactly to when I was upgrading pfSense to 2.6 which is a part of my core routing infrastructure - hence the 502.
https://infrablog.lain.la/maintenance-mar052022
On another note, https://webring.lain.la has been updated. Apologies that I don't do this more often. Also as a general note - I don't include onion or i2p links as my own site is clearnet only for now.

if just breaking a gif into one frame per layer you can then edit and merge back into the animation.
gimp can do

This thread has inspired me to start my own website as well.
Not going to take it too seriously, just posting about stuff that I find interesting.
Never used a webring before. What's the general etiquette behind it? Are you supposed to add everything?
I found some of the websites here interesting, but I'd rather start a "Recommended Sites" page than just adding everything on the ring.

ideally a webring is closer to an actual 'ring', meaning you just have a 'next' and 'previous' maybe a 'random' or central page that lists everything.
and then each member would just register/request itself onto the central ring and put the ring navigator on their site.
since this ring doesnt really have it, besides concealed's php, the general idea so far is just you at least link to some sites within the ring on your webring/links/interesting sites pages so visitors can keep surfing across the lain sites
then again its also all up to you, theres some sites 'in the ring' that dont link to anywhere else
>>57874

hey frenz. I wanted an easier way to share my i2p website by creating a helper address, but how? For now, I'm using the b32 address, but I've seen people using a helper address that adds an entry to the address book so that you can type a short .i2p domain. Pic related (taken from cathugger).

should just be in your hidden service manager under i2p hidden services, i think what you need to do is go to http://127.0.0.1:7657/i2ptunnel/edit?tunnel=3 change the hostname save it and it should just pop up
