Freenet / HyphanetJul 16, 2025

There’s a new site as a hidden service by @champiaf that beautifully explains #Freenet / #Hyphanet for #Tor users:

@Freenet hmmm.. first challenge for me is reaching that URL...
Show threadFreenet / Hyphanet

@Stellar the Tor-URL is dead, but there is still a working Hyphanet-URI:

USK@KDCpAO5T1zoNtpWRwXdOaQzm19iSYxh7rvSf7yt5mco,gNtzREwbZSLXGygOSGgafb-epsSJS9HJcJF9jfVJso4,AQACAAE/HyphanetDoorway/6/

You need to install #Hyphanet for that:
https://www.hyphanet.org/pages/download.html

Then put the USK link into the key field on the welcome page.

If you run GNU Linux, pass the USK link to
https://github.com/hyphanet/browser

See https://floss.social/@Freenet/114869688713925289

Hyphanet

Hyphanet is a peer-to-peer platform for censorship-resistant communication and publishing.

@Stellar I open such a link from the terminal with

$ freenetbrowser USK@KDCpAO5T1zoNtpWRwXdOaQzm19iSYxh7rvSf7yt5mco,gNtzREwbZSLXGygOSGgafb-epsSJS9HJcJF9jfVJso4,AQACAAE/HyphanetDoorway/6/

@Stellar for the onion link that’s true, but the onion site died sometime in the past year.

The Freenet / Hyphanet link (USK@...) still works and needs a running Hyphanet node.
