Thread 106877349

Good afternoon. About a week ago, I started developing my own "anonymous messenger" website on the Flask Python framework, intending to use Nginx as the web server. I'm currently at the stage where I've connected a PostgreSQL database and am using it through SQLAlchemy ORM. I need to establish a secure connection, either through Tor or through Tor, which will completely hide the user's real IP through the Tor network. However, this would potentially lose people who don't want to use Tor and access my .onion website. Another option is to use a proxy through Cloudflare, but that poses a problem: the server won't receive the user's real IP (it will go through Cloudflare's DNS servers), but Cloudflare providers can. The project will be open source, and anyone can deploy it on their own server. I'd like to hear your thoughts on this.

And why would I use this over briar or session

Good question. Right now, I'd describe it as an alternative. Some people prefer something they can fully control or self-host, rather than relying on a third-party service like Briar or Session. I was inspired by Ricochet — it's open-source, privacy-focused, and designed so anyone can run their own instance if they want.
