I agree, it's very basic. Though it does work as intended for now.

Reply to Security on ramble.pw by burnerben
Good question.
By design, not much is collected. What did you supply when signing up? A username and a password is what most people supply.
For those who value privacy, I would imagine they use a different username/password combination for each website, it's not a bad idea, and good OpSec practices are beneficial to everyone. :)
But you asked how things are stored and protected. Information (posts, comments, username/pass) are stored in a PostgreSQL database. Passwords are hashed using the bcrypt algorithm. IP logs are minimal and temporary, not that they'd offer much in terms of identification of users due to the options allowed (and encouraged) of connecting and interacting with the website. Since most people are using anonymity networks to access this website I think, there address of origin is ever changing.

Isn't it a security risk?

Reply to What is rample.pw based on, php? by burnerben
It's running the open sourced Postmill application, which is written in php and on the Symfony framework. The open sourced code can be found here: https://gitlab.com/postmill/Postmill

I'm using clearnet because I CBA to use tor most of the time. With that said, I think OPSEC should be taken more seriously in general. Somewhat related but irrelevant story time. Last night me and my GF were watching true crime documentaries on youtube. Specifically one from That Chapter (great channel, highly suggest it) Jodi Arias was the subject. Now I knew a little about the story going in, but I was still watching. The video had crime scene photos that were blurred. Naturally out of morbid curiousity I had to look. First I tried liveleak, I couldnt' find anything, seems they removed all such content. tried google, haha yeah right. duckduckgo, nothing. I eventually found them but I had to go through blogspot. The point I'm tryng to get to here is that the internet is so very different from the late 90s when I started using it. You simply are not allowed to see certain things, I mean, obviously CP should be no bueno, and in some ways the morality of crime scene photos is debatable but irregressibile the internet is effectively ruined. There was a time that you could access information regardless of whether it was popular, the status quo, the story, or sadly even legal. IMHO we really need to convince our peers to get off of social media. It is a toxic, depressive environment that is overused, a time waster and makes the human expect a warped vision of reality, one that is full of glamour and happiness, a place that further rejects the reality of our collective mental state. Does it matter to anyone that China is using Uyghur Muslims as slaves for the manufacture of your new iPhone? I can't tell because soon enough that information will too be illegal. We're headed down an even darker path and most of it is because of our perverted view of what is taboo and what isn't, what can be talked about and what is simply inappropriate.
TLDR: i use clearnet, and i hate that basic privacy is not afforded online.

Reply to How secure is ramble messaging? by burnerben
The private messaging between users is not encrypted. As for anything serious, I would suggest XMPP/Jabber OTR or messaging using PGP with the keys supplied by both parties. I would love to have that feature built in but it's not a stock feature.

I agree you can directly contact mods about it if you look in the wiki.

Reply to What programming language would you suggest to someone interesting in building dynamic websites? by Rambler

I've been wondering the same. I also want to know how to resolve YGG domains on desktop. Yggdrasil-Android already has YGG domain resolution built in.

From I2P and ramble.i2p is working fine now.
This is awesome af!

Not in bind config. NodeInfo data should go into Yggdrasil config.
To resolve .ygg zone, you either need to run Wyrd yourself, or use one of third-party servers specified in readme.

This does not surprise me. I have a friend whose son had severe food allergies as a child and teen. He could not eat anything with dairy, and is still wildly allergic to nuts and shellfish. I remember the first Thanksgiving they had after he finally received a diagnosis was a challenge for her. She had to not only exclude everything from eggs to dairy to I think even certain grains, she had to buy expensive food to assure there was no cross contamination.
The biggest worry was keeping up his vaccinations, because egg is used as some sort of component with some vaccines. I don't know the exact details. I just remember her getting upset because some asshole political cartoonist made a comic where he basically said parents saying they don't want their kids vaccinated are the same parents who want special treatment if their kid has a food allergy.
I remember telling off the cartoonist on Twatter at the time. Didn't do any good except made me feel just slightly better.
But anyway, yeah, this doesn't surprise me. With any luck they will be able to develope the vaccine without having to mix it with any known food allergy culprits

I've requested someone from /r/onions on reddit to test this as well, since I don't have the ability to replicate the error.
If it's replicated then we can start figuring out where the issue is: Tor Bundle on iOS or this website.

Reply to Do you think it's worth it for newcomers to buy into large well known crypto like BitCoin? by Rambler
I don't see why not. I'm not sure the gains will be anywhere near the same from 2020-2030 as it was from 2010-2020. Don't invest more than you can afford to lose. If you want stability invest in precious metals that you can hold and physical property like... actual land or something.
