In the previous Bitcoin lightning, payment channels had to be set up, managed and maintained, which was usually only accomplished by technically skilled individuals or companies. Often centralized and custodial. The system described here uses smart contracts, HTLCs, which can manage the Lightning system for everyone via intuitive user interfaces.

If you use the Tor Browser or the Mullvad Browser you will see the popup of NoScript - because your identity at X can be open to other websites in your web browser. Keep your privacy in mind.
You may leave traces without realizing it. The way you write, what you read about and how much, when you are active, etc. Remember, if you are a Monero XMR user, you may not want this at all!
Mental hygiene; it feels good not to be at the mercy of the posts there for a while. Try it out!

Yes.
You can link your mobile device with desktop to use the same profile remotely, but this is only possible when both devices are connected to the same local network.

A big thanks to tevador from TorProject Proof of Work for .onion Services https://spec.torproject.org/hspow-spec/
The overall denial-of-service prevention strategies in Tor are described in the Denial-of-service prevention mechanisms in Tor document. This document describes one specific mitigation, the proof-of-work client puzzle for onion service introduction.
This was originally proposal 327, A First Take at PoW Over Introduction Circuits authored by George Kadianakis, Mike Perry, David Goulet, and tevador.
Thank you anon. Good work.
Yes, thanks for the clarification.
So please don’t lump crypto (esp. Monero) users as a single kind of people.
I was expecting childish reactions when I shared this post. But that doesn't matter, if only one user has benefited from it, it was well worth it.
Only two days and we already have at least two new servers:

SimpleX is a private encrypted messenger that creates new identities for each conversation. However, as we pointed out in a previous video, when you first install the app, it’s all the developer’s own servers. This has metadata and centralization risks. We are here to help.
SimplifiedPrivacy.com is a completely different firm than SimpleX (although we share the same first word). We just released a tutorial video with a self-host script for any Debian/Ubuntu VPS that you can use to easily self-host a SimpleX server: https://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/simplex/
In the tutorial video, we taught how to use Kyun.host a Monero focused free speech provider in Romania that we recommend! However, you can use any provider.
Here is the script on our self-hosted gitlab on Kyun with an Iceland domain: https://git.simplifiedprivacy.is/publicgroup/simplex-self-host/
If you do not wish to self-host, you can add our SimpleX servers to your app for free:

Even if not directly Monero-related, this draws attention to the community when such contributions come from here.
I am pleased that it is useful.

It is a praise and a testimony to need and benefit.
"If you use XMR, then there isn't much anyone can do (or to help you with), as far as I know. Bitcoin can be traced, but not frozen, until you send it to a CEX."
"The key point is, you have the choice."
@cz_binance said it before and he will say it again:
Bitcoin is traceable. https://monero.town/post/461435

In my eyes, you were a visionary with foresight and a gift for expressing yourself in the right way! For me, you were a beacon in the blockchain industry. As with a chancellor, the work doesn't stop when you no longer hold the post. On the contrary, it is more demanding, because you have to guide your successors and point out the paths you have taken. The reward comes when you only have to speak out on serious, big issues and can otherwise sit back and relax. All the best!
