Is there a web client that is fully usable with TOR?

Iris dosn't let me follow.

Snort dosn't load anything.

Coracle loads the feed and let me follow but only after searching for a user, follow/post/dm buttons are missing and the messages area is disabled.

Tested on macOS both with TOR browser and Firefox + TOR.

Alternatives or tricks?

Nostr clients communicate with relays over WebSockets. My guess is that ToR does not handle WebSockets well or at all.

In addition, The Onion Browser disables JavaScript by default, IIRC. So even if the low-level WebSocket connection could be made over ToR, the app functionality may be inaccessible.

Torbrowser

Or: Orbot configured to handle your specific browser

It used to work, will check again

My bad, Iris + Tor browser work! It has only a problem with the feedback of the follow button that reverts immediately, but the action is actually executed, this fooled me. Posting and dms are ok too.

Ok sorry, I seriously need to sleep, I miss the button changing from "follow" to "followING"!

I expected a color change, might help :)

Useful information, thank you

Did you log in to Coracle? That could explain the grayed out/missing buttons. Otherwise, Coracle seems to be working ok on Tor for me.

I created a fresh new key.

As you can see after that the right button still shows the login:

Interesting, thanks for the extra information, I'll look into it

hey hey nostr:nprofile1qqsy2ga7trfetvd3j65m3jptqw9k39wtq2mg85xz2w542p5dhg06e5qnykmge , saw the new iris replacing iris.to. Is it no longer accessible via tor ?

Beta? It is working for me.

New instead is down.

I just tried iris.to. will try beta. thank you!

Iris.to worked fine for me over Tor. How is it broken?

right now it's black screen but beta works fine on tor. it errors out previously. if it does again will capture the message and pass it on. thank you!

Btw Martti, the light screen option is not working on iris or beta.

Confirm.
