I'm still stuck...
I wanted to report to issue to gitlab.torproject.org, to be able to do so, I had to create a account at https://anonticket.torproject.org/user/gitlab-account/create/

few days, and my account is still in "pending" f*ck !

Did someone manage to run tor-browser as another user ?

@lurch@sh.itjust.works the last entry the gave strace was

exit_group(0) = ?

I don't know if this help ?

I create also a "regular user" TorUser2
To see if it generate the same problems
This user have the .Xauthority file.\

# as root user
runuser -u TorUser2 -- /opt/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.desktop

return Launching './Browser/start-tor-browser --detach...'
and ps -u TorUser2 return nothing...

I've tried also

runuser -l TorUser2 -c '/opt/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.desktop'

/usr/bin/env: './Browser/execdesktop': No such file or directory

I've try one guidance, but it didn't worked.

I quit the xfce, login as root, did

echo $XAUTHORITY
#returned nothing

XAUTHORITY=/tmp/.Xauthority.tmp
xauth -f $XAUTHORITY generate :0 . trusted

and after few minute it returned

xauth: (argv):1 unable to open display :0 😢

Thank you @mina86@lemmy.wtf I've look where point the $XAUTHORITY but it point to another user /home/<aUser>/.Xauthority and to give access to the file I have to change also the permission on the parent folders... not to hot to do so...

I see also the TorUser do not have a file .Xauthority ! I've look how generate one for it, but I found no good documentation ! They show how do it once logged with TorUser ! but mine is not meant to be used to login on the system..

Thanks @mumblerfish@lemmy.world I did

runuser -u TorUser -- echo $DISPLAY and I have the same value as for my other user. :0.0

Thank you, this is a good idea !

I've did

#as root
runuser -u TorUser -- python3 -V

and that succeed

I do not use sudo I open a virtual terminal and did su then the commands I posted.

Thanks @online@programming.dev

But is it E2EE !?? I see no reference to it.

Thank you @Ильдар@lemmy.world

All my contacts and I migrated to it. I'll try their "desktop" (aka computer) version I hope it has the share screen functionality 🤞

Is the Desktop app (.appimage) has the share screen feature ?

Thanks for the sharing @skullgiver@popplesburger.hilciferous.nl

I've check VeilidChat for the moment indeed it is just a network framework... so no apps ready yet (unless I'm mistaken )

The negative point is that the developer use exclusively google tech for it !! ( Dart, flutter )
So why peoples that want to fight for freedom use the Sauron tool !? it baffle me...

Thank you @Anafabula@discuss.tchncs.de ! it works !

Please select what kind of key you want:
(1) RSA and RSA (default)
(2) DSA and Elgamal
(3) DSA (sign only)
(4) RSA (sign only)
(7) DSA (set your own capabilities)
(8) RSA (set your own capabilities)
(9) ECC and ECC
(10) ECC (sign only)
(11) ECC (set your own capabilities)
(13) Existing key
(14) Existing key from card\

I'm wondering whats is the option: (9) ECC and ECC ?? I found nothing in their documentation :/

Well received, any sources where we could corroborate that statement ?

Damn

now that I open few ports 9001

I see incoming connection that are dropped because they use totally diffrent ports

drop: IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=aMacadrs SRC=aIP DST=aMyIP LEN=64 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=48 ID=65508 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=443 DPT=50194 WINDOW=501 RES=0x00 ACK URGP=0

::: spoiler privacy I've replaced some string with 'aSomething' ::: .

it's weird in my nftable config file I have

type filter hook input priority 0; policy drop;
ct state established,related accept

Any ideas ?

Yes

👍 Thanks again @qprimed@lemmy.ml

Thank you very much @qprimed@lemmy.ml ! indeed I saw in my nftables log tentative to 443 and 9001. ( I didn't find this in the tor doc ... )

9050 is your socks proxy - so protect it. if your nftables is blocking localhost:9050/TCP then you need to correct that.

is this will do : ip saddr 127.0.0.1 ip daddr 127.0.0.1 accept ?

I couldn't have said it better !

They did the same with Flash with the help of adobe.

A little update.

I've just tested simplex on Android.

it's very well thought out ! The features make sense. UNFORTUNATELY it's not P2P ! all the messages pass by their servers :'( with Briar it's P2P.... weirdly they claim their way is better than P2P ! any comment on that ?

In my point of view, if messages are stored somewhere it's mean the can be process[^1] !

Cheers.
