Excellent! Still, as I argued before, I believe that a solution we could use is defaulting to Tor channeling in our mobile app. Facebook offers it as an option in partnership with Orbot - I believe we should do the same, but default to it (so that people cannot be held responsible for making a

Seconded -- this is an excellent use of Orbot. Worth testing that experience to see if it could be a comfortable default. On Nov 24, 2017 3:36 AM, "Dariusz Jemielniak" wrote: > Excellent! Still, as I argued before, I believe that a solution we could > use is defaulting to Tor

Well, what we could do just as well is trying to load normally, but when it fails immediately load through Orbot. The delays should be minimal most of the time, and the crucial part is that a) users don't have to do anything, install other apps, change the settings - it just works, b) users won't

Great to hear! I have one caveat with it though - if I understand it correctly, it is currently in a man-in-the-middle position between the visitor and WMF, as it provides its own self-signed https certificate and performs various URL rewriting on the traffic to change the URLs to the onion

I think this is unlikely to happen, because of the performance degradation (access via Tor will always be slower, which user studies have shown to be a significant usability issue in the past). But as an option or fallback or separate app it might be a

Then, if it's not a too big maintance burden, what about proposing both solution? Our users already pay extremely huge loading time for some feature like visual editing, but the far faster wikitext editor is still there for those who are happier with that. Le 24/11/2017 à 19:37, Tilman
