@MasTorDon forcing https redirects on onions with invalid certs is bad UX. even if onions technically are trustworthy without any further authentication, it's bad to tell users to click through cert warnings

@opal i tried removing the requirement for ssl but the verification emails are sent with a https link. I'm not really a coder but i thought it would be cool to have a mas tor don that can't be shut down by any governments and its users are anonymous.

@MasTorDon >can't be shut down by any governments

that isnt true, see the dozens of hidden service seizures for proof. tor simply makes it more difficult, but by itself it isnt a bulletproof solution
@MasTorDon (sorry for the number of replies)

i just went onto the v3 onion; the website links still direct to the v2 onion. i think this is something you should bring up in the mastodon bug tracker, because absolute links inside a website isnt really good practice. pleroma suffers a similar issue with the media proxy, and i believe the devs are trying to find a way to address it (if they havent already)

@opal I don't think it's a bug as I've read images are always served from the main domain
