This was something I suggested for this instance, since there is even a guide for hosting an onion service: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/135234
Maybe /u/db0 will have more time after the spam settles down, but it seems he's got a lot on his plate at the moment between being an admin and doing AI stuff.
Would federating work properly with an instance on i2p or tor?
If with properly you include insane amount of waiting for requests and timing out then yes
yes. I have a Diaspora, another Fediverse platforms, account on diasp.org that I hav only ever accessed via their hidden tor service http://diasporg5tj4xz5mxkd5qnrppo7tbb6ynk2gtmjw5lmz6mtbesj3k6id.onion and their i2p connection http://diasporg.i2p , and i have no issue federating with friends that only use normie instances like Friendica. I have heard there are some maston imstances that support tor hidden service to. Maybe kolektiva.social?
Probably if all instances were using Tor, but it would be very slow
Also, would you want it to?
Also a valid point
@prole @ReCursing In most cases, the Tor instance wants to federate with clearnet instances. Clearnet instances might want to opt-in to federating with Tor instances - no child porn, but reading news about piracy is legal.

Good to hear that’s still up! I remember when some dude got that up and running shortly after the darknetmarkets sub was closed down.
I mean you can very much onion route to a regular server, if it allows connections from Tor.
Unfortunately Tor means it's very hard to IP ban abusers, so a lot of services automatically ban common Tor exit nodes.

This is basically true. You need to have certain DNS configurations you cannot afford on Tor hidden services to federate, and while you still could be listening on a Tor hidden service, clearnet servers would still need to reach you to federate.
On top of that, even if you somehow manage to do that, either youre federation trafic goes through Tor (lmao how to DDoS Tor in 1 step), or It doesn't and all servers can see your public IP, which deafeats the purpose.

@skullgiver @Fonz It is possible; you have to set it up yourself and you won't federate with many places.
Hosting Lemmy or Mastodon on Tor or I2P isn't hard; you just host it, and link your Tor/I2P daemon to it same as any other website. But you have to be aware you'll be cut off from the majority of other instances. You'll be running standalone.
I am not sure about Lemmy, but Pleroma supports feeding all your federation traffic through a proxy; you can use one called fedproxy to split out your I2P federation traffic through your I2P daemon, and likewise for Tor. I am not currently running this on my server. It should still work for other fedisoftware than Pleroma. https://docs.akkoma.dev/stable/configuration/i2p/

@skullgiver Yes, there are many ways to make sure your server connects to Tor and I2P sites. But that's what the guy who ISN'T running a Tor/I2P site has to do, to federate with the Tor/I2P site. If you're running the Tor/I2P site you can't really do much on your side to enable federation.
Cloudflare won't help because you need inbound connections. Some VPNs support *transient* port mapping designed for BitTorrent, but good luck trying to claim a stable port number for any significant length of time, never mind port 443 (which I'm sure is outside of the allocation range anyway). You'd have more luck trying to find a VPS provider crazy enough to let you pay anonymously with cryptocurrency with just a pinky promise that you're not hosting child porn. Or just don't federate.
