Hello,

I’ve written a post that I’d like to distribute as anonymously as possible while still reaching a large audience (if possible). However every forum that has let me create an account through tor always has a server error when trying to make a post. Do you guys have any recommendations for where I could make a forum post from the tor browser?

Thanks

    Which forums are you talking about ? Discourse based forums ? Reddit ? Lemmy ? Reddit will shadowban Tor and VPN users immediately. Lemmy with some exceptions should be fine is my experience. Note however that Tor circuits can change. For example, a few days in a row I had search engine results thinking I’d come from a certain country and on some sites I was offered to solve reCAPTHAs or blocked for reading things. Then since a few days search engine results think that I come from another country, and I don’t have to solve reCAPTCHAs for a site where I had to before. I’m trying to say that it appears that some sites block all Tor but some sites only block some of Tor. You can manually change the country you appear to come from with Tor browser though this is not recommended. Using a VPN is an alternative to HYA.
