MinusBrowser 2.30.1 is Published

Minus is like Gopher, but even simpler. MinusBrowser also browses Gopherspace.

MinusBrowser is written for Linux-based operating systems.

• MinusBrowser now correctly displays the Tor version in the about:browser and about:server pages. This fixes a bug in the previous two versions.

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

To get MinusBrowser if you do not already have it, download this file from Codeberg.

https://codeberg.org/giXzkGsc/Minus-Protocol/raw/branch/main/MinusBrowser.tar.gz

There is no need to install MinusBrowser. Just download the .tar.gz file to your home folder and unpack it with

tar -xzf MinusBrowser.tar.gz

or use your favorite GUI software to unpack it. If you have a version of MinusBrowser earlier than 2.1, unpack the .tar.gz file into the same directory as your present MinusBrowser folder.

To follow the progress of the Minus Protocol Project, click on #minus-protocol or look at https://nerdpol.ch/tags/minus-protocol

You can download MinusBrowser from a terminal window with this command. This will work only if Tor Browser is running because it borrows Tor Browser’s SOCKS5 proxy. (Both Tor Browser and MinusBrowser contain their own copy of Tor.)

curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 -O gopher://mvxpelpxu2f7kzotb2s2t6fkmggvrd7qdg2wjs6waiyf2nbhkawux4yd.onion:1990/9/MinusBrowser.tar.gz

This works because all Minus URLs can be translated into Gopher URLs.

minus://something.onion/ → gopher://something.onion:1990/9/

MinusBrowser 2.30 is Published

Minus is like Gopher, but even simpler. MinusBrowser also browses Gopherspace.

MinusBrowser is written for Linux-based operating systems.

• Updated to Tor 0.4.8.11.
• Clicking on a file:// link to a missing file no longer fails. This fixes a bug in the previous version.
• The about: pages have been improved, and two more have been added: about:computer and about:network.
• The built-in documentation has been revised, and a new page has been added that summarizes the protocols and schemes supported by MinusBrowser. The three files: schemes.minus, keycmd.minus, and clicks.minus together now provide a quick reference for MinusBrowser.
• Typing Shift-Control-j now finds words with spellings similar to the entered or selected text. This is the same lookup used by the editor window when you select a word and type Control-d.

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

MinusBrowser 2.29 is Published

Minus is like Gopher, but even simpler. MinusBrowser also browses Gopherspace.

MinusBrowser is written for Linux-based operating systems.

• Added an about: scheme with three pages: about, browser, and server. This is similar to the about: scheme of some web browsers. Search for about: on the Home page for details. More pages will probably be added in the future.
• Links are now followed up to three levels deep.
• The very limited support for the Gemini protocol has been removed. This will probably be added back if, and when, curl supports the Gemini protocol.
• Some more cruft related to the way MinusBrowser used to work with the Tails OS has been removed.
• When files other than text files are read, a window with details about the file is displayed. You can delete these non-text files by typing Shift-Delete, just as with text files. A note about this now appears on the details page.
• MinusBrowser can now read any file or folder using EasyGPG, if EasyGPG is installed, by typing Control-d. Previously, this only worked with text files. If the file contains no PGP messages or keys, EasyGPG will offer to encrypt the file.
• More links now appear on the page that appears when you click "Read file" (or type Control-o).

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

Oui, mais.... Lien DIRECT vers la page #FDN : https://www.fdn.fr/?s=vpn (aucun #traceur)

Oui mais... je vous mets volontairement la recherche par mot clé, car le premier article est également évocateur :

Rappel : Pour tous ceux qui vont sans hésiter sur #youtube, #google, #GAFAM etc, un VPN ne sert pas à grand chose :

Seulement voilà, il n'y a rien de magique : une fois le VPN atteint, celui-ci devra atteindre les destinations (n'importe quelle requête #HTTP par exemple) de façon régulière. Le VPN n'ajoute absolument aucune couche de #sécurité entre lui-même et la destination finale, c'est seulement votre connexion au VPN qui est une étape supplémentaire chiffrée.

MinusBrowser 2.28.2 is Published

Minus is like Gopher, but even simpler. MinusBrowser also browses Gopherspace.

MinusBrowser is written for Linux-based operating systems.

• When Internet connections fail, MinusBrowser no longer retries twice. This should prevent MinusBrowser from appearing to be frozen for a full minute.
• The page that appears when you click the "Read file" button will no longer include links to files that do not exist because you have never started your Minus server. This fixes a bug in previous versions.
• MinusBrowser now ensures that the Tor folders now have the proper permissions. Tor will not run if these are not correct. This has not been a problem, but there is no reason not to be more careful.

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

MinusBrowser is written for Linux-based operating systems.

• Fixed another bug for Tails users caused by changes in the latest version of Tails.

Tails Users

Because of the changes to Tails that made this update necessary, you will have to update this time in a special way. After this, you will be able to update as you have been doing. This only applies to Tails users.

1. Download https://codeberg.org/giXzkGsc/Minus-Protocol/raw/branch/main/MinusBrowser.tar.gz
2. Move MinusBrowser.tar.gz to the Persistent folder where your MinusBrowser folder is and then unpack it into the Persistent folder. You can do this from a terminal window, if you cd to the Persistent folder and then type tar -xzf MinusBrowser.tar.gz.
3. Remove MinusBrowser.tar.gz.

MinusBrowser 2.28 is Published

Minus is like Gopher, but even simpler. MinusBrowser also browses Gophersapce.

MinusBrowser is written for Linux-based operating systems.

• Control-y has been reassigned to search for the entered or selected word or phrase in Idiotbox.
• Control-p now searches for the entered or selected word or phrase in Veronica 2, the search engine for Gopherspace.
• Several key combinations that did not work correctly when the cursor was in the text entry area now work correctly. This fixes a bug in previous versions.
• Additional information is displayed about files read with MinusBrowser that are not text files. MinusBrowser now displays the type, size, and modification date of such files. For video and audio files, if ffprobe is available, tags will also be displayed. If ffmpeg is installed, ffprobe should be available.
• The pages opened by the "Read file" button (and Control-o) now include more links.
• Audacious is now preferred to VLC when reading a page aloud. Audacious is more appropriate because it only plays audio files. Newer versions of VLC also have more "glitches."
• Tails now no longer supports Desktop files at all. Read the ReadMeFirst.txt file to see how this changes the way we use MinusBrowser with Tails.

• MinusBrowser now requires Minus URLs to end with a file name extension like .gz, .txt, etc. The Minus Protocol Specification already specified that the file type is indicated by the extension, implicitly requiring an extension. Now the specification makes this requirement explicit, and MinusBrowser rejects file names without extensions.
• In addition to VLC and Audacious, MinusBrowser can now use MPV when reading pages aloud. The first choice is VLC, then Audacious, and then MPV.
• Because MinusBrowser can not play YouTube videos discovered with Idiotbox, it now plays them with other software (by default, the default web browser). Note that this may mean downloading content without using Tor. It is also possible to play these videos with software other than a web browser, if such software is available. Search the MinusBrowser home page for "youtube" to read more details.
• Some errors in built-in documentation have been fixed, and new information has been added.

• MinusBrowser now reads man pages. Typing Control-m now displays the man page (if any) for the text you enter or select.
• Control-m is no longer a substitute for the "Add to menu" button because Control-m is now used to look for man pages.
• A new man: URL scheme now exists to support looking for man pages. You can create links to man: URLs.
• When you click on a file:// link to a file that is not a text file, you now have the option of opening it with the default software for its file type. This will not work if the file is executable software or is likely to contain executable software (e.g., .docm and .xlsmfiles).

#IPNS-Link leverages #IPFS, a #decentralized #HTTP replacement, to it's full potential...

#NAT traversal and decentralised relays allow your services to be reached from nearly anywhere, even if they're behind NATs with dynamic ip-addresses.
IPNS-Link Gateways act like a #CDN and will resolve IPFS and #IPNS URLs, offloading work from you to the IPFS network.
Your ip-addresses are #hidden from third-parties behind #encryption, only IPNS-Link Gateways you decide to trust can access your service.
IPNS-Link is simple to deploy and easy to relocate to new devices.

THE GOPHER REVIVAL IS UPON US

A maxim for anyone writing a web page in the mid 1990s was that it was good practice to bring the whole thing (including graphics) in at around 30 kB in size. It was a time when the protocol still had some pretence of efficient information delivery, when information was self-published, before huge corporations brought everything under their umbrellas.

Recently, this idea of the small web has been experiencing something of a quiet comeback.

fatedier / #frp: A fast reverse #proxy to help you expose a local #server behind a #NAT or #firewall to the internet.

frp is a fast reverse proxy that allows you to expose a local server located behind a NAT or firewall to the Internet. It currently supports #TCP and #UDP, as well as #HTTP and #HTTPS protocols, enabling requests to be forwarded to internal services via #domain name.

frp also offers a #P2P connect mode.

MinusBrowser 2.11.2 is Published

Minus is an alternative to, but not a replacement for, HTTP and Gopher.

• MinusBrowser's copy of Tor now uses OpenSSL 1.1.1u.

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

To get MinusBrowser if you do not already have it, download this file from Codeberg.

https://codeberg.org/giXzkGsc/Minus-Protocol/raw/branch/main/MinusBrowser.tar.gz

There is no need to install MinusBrowser. Just download the .tar.gz file to your home folder and unpack it with

tar -xzf MinusBrowser.tar.gz

or use your favorite GUI software to unpack it. If you have a version of MinusBrowser earlier than 2.1, unpack the .tar.gz file into the same directory as your present MinusBrowser folder.

To follow the progress of the Minus Protocol Project, click on #minus-protocol or look at https://nerdpol.ch/tags/minus-protocol

You can download MinusBrowser from a terminal window with this command. This will work only if Tor Browser is running because it borrows Tor Browser’s SOCKS5 proxy. (Both Tor Browser and MinusBrowser contain their own copy of Tor.)

curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 -O gopher://mvxpelpxu2f7kzotb2s2t6fkmggvrd7qdg2wjs6waiyf2nbhkawux4yd.onion:1990/9/MinusBrowser.tar.gz

This works because all Minus URLs can be translated into Gopher URLs.

minus://something.onion/ → gopher://something.onion:1990/9/

MinusBrowser 2.7 is Published

Minus is an alternative to, but not a replacement for, HTTP and Gopher.

The following changes were made.

• If I2P is running, MinusBrowser can now read files from .i2p domains using HTTP or HTTPS.
• A new "Add file" button has been added to the server window. This adds files to your library that already exist.
• Error checking in the functions that add files to your library has been improved.

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

MinusBrowser 2.6 is Published

Minus is an alternative to, but not a replacement for, HTTP and Gopher.

• You can now edit a page by holding down the Control key while you click a file:// link to it.
• You can now remove a page from your library by holding down the Control key while you right-click a file:// link to it.
• Your initial index.minus file is created immediately after clicking the Start Server button the first time. This fixes a bug in previous versions.
• The server now checks the file name extension of the file name you enter after you click the New page button to make sure it is .minus, .txt, .text, or .asc. This fixes a bug in previous versions.

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

Minus is an alternative to, but not a replacement for, HTTP and Gopher.

• When using Tails, MinusBrowser now correctly determines whether the computer is connected to a network.
• New Gopher links have been added to the "Known Minus Libraries and Selected Gopher Holes" page.
• MinusBrowser now, finally, correctly finds text with hyphens (-).
• MinusBrowser now tolerates spaces in URLs. Spaces are not allowed in minus:// URLs, but they are allowed in file://, gopher://, http://, and https:// URLs.
