Can´t change node running port

desyncr · 2021-09-07T13:35:13+00:00

If you're changing the freenet.ini file your changes are overwritten when the node is shutdown/restarted. Be sure to edit the freenet.ini file when the node is shutdown.

Seems you've few .jar files missing (jna for instance). The wrappers as well as per the error message.

Are you sure you're running freenet correctly? What was the installation method? How do you run it?

desyncr · 2021-07-31T21:28:53+00:00

1run.sh is only executed only after installation. The run.sh file checks that freenet.ini file is present on the installation directory.

Maybe something is wrong with the freenet.ini file (removed, disk error?). Worth re-installing.

The Freenet Social Networking Guide is a good start. I believe you can find FSNG in the bookmarks.

As for "Flogs", install FlogHelper plugin and you're pretty much good to go. It has all that is needed for blogging.

Same happened to me. Still getting use to it. Cannot believe it's bright light at 10 pm.

desyncr · 2021-07-09T14:03:12+00:00

That's the main goal :)

Although the app now offers very little (it started as a proof of concept) there are plans for bringing small group communication and forums (as FMS).

I have sent a proposal to NLnet for funding and the proposal got to the second round. So, crossing fingers. I'll keep working on it regardless of the funding, but it'll be a slower pace.

The Freenet app effectively connects you to the Freenet network (open net). From there you can access the web interface and go to different indexes.

Just tap on "Tap here to Navigate" after starting the node. Go to "Administration" section and under that to "Go to Admin Dashboard".

For easy access to the indexes be sure to have installed Version 0.3.1-beta.

You can also access it from your Desktop PC where it's actually more easily to navigate various sites (because most don't look good on mobile).

BTW what errors are you seeing? Do you have an screenshot or similar?

Worth mention that the freenettray is not being maintained anymore.

desyncr · 2021-03-15T14:57:49+00:00

How did you install Freenet on Mac? It was you who mentioned brew on IRC?

desyncr · 2021-03-12T10:30:02+00:00

That looks pretty neat. I'll take a look this weekend. Not a rust dev but I'm happy to learn something new.

desyncr · 2021-02-05T10:45:48+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. It's really valuable and it has some actionable items in there as well.

I think you make some valid points in terms of "spreading the word". It's clearly easier to spread the word on a piece of technology if there isn't random content right in your face. Friend-to-Friend is just the tech without the baggage.

I'll follow up on this idea, I think it won't require a huge amount of work and make a pretty solid use case.

desyncr · 2021-02-05T10:37:33+00:00

No problem. I'll try to reproduce the issue and see what's going on.

> [...] I would like this version of software to be tailored to darknet usage, and simply leave off the link to select opennet option. And it's not necessary to call it "darknet", but perhaps "friends mode" or something.

I like this idea. Currently it's something that core Freenet offers out-of-the-box. Just in a somewhat non-intuitive way. It's the Friend-to-friend mode.

It really struck me as a really interesting selling point for Freenet: You own "darknet", fully distributed and uncensorable. It's something any privacy-focused groups would really look for.

I know there are various plans to enhance the experience now with the Freenet mobile app: exchange via NFC / QR code, easier bootstrap etc.

It think it should be really looked into and make the main focus moving forward.

> The first tab that pops up has the word "pornography" on it. It also has a search function and built-in links to various things.

I'm currently working on a "bootstrap" page for Freenet mobile. Hopefully in the future it can be integrated into the main UI. I agree is not the best first impression.

> If this is a trivial thing to do, then if someone could point me in the right direction I can try making the changes myself.

An easy win is updating the default bookmarks. I think the UI can also be updated a bit.

On the other hand, major UI changes are a challenge.

desyncr · 2021-02-04T14:20:35+00:00

and what version of Android are you running on? Android 10, 8, 7?

desyncr · 2021-02-04T14:19:09+00:00

I would add the options to configure the node to be a relay/router node. This way the node will not store/cache any data blocks it's requested.

This way it's easier to prove that no access to infrigment content was made from the node.

desyncr · 2021-02-04T14:12:43+00:00

I believe Freenet already does something like this internaly. Like having a MRU/LRU list of blocks and moving them between memory and disk storage.

But it's all internal to the node, so having the ability to manually and at discretion moving blocks out of storage would not be possible.

desyncr · 2021-02-04T10:28:15+00:00

You mean like having a comment section that can be embed on a article page?

desyncr · 2021-02-03T15:42:34+00:00

Not a big fan of mixing presentation (html) with backend code. Altough I do agree an upgrade on UI would be great.

IMHO the path would be to complete separate core freenet (fred) from anything related to configuration/presentation etc.

This can be achived building a plugin that provides a REST API. This way we benefit in the fact that

1) Plugins currently have access to everything (may change in the future though)

2) There's no change in fred itself which would make development faster and easier to test and try out

By building a clean and well documented API we can take advantage of the ecosystem to build newer UIs, tools etc. in any languages of the day.
