====== Not a goal of Yggdrasil ======
|
||
|
|
Welcome to this article! If you've been sent here, it means you're being bullshit and don't understand that "is not a goal of Yggdrasil"!
|
||
|
|
Likely you was been also politely told to <del>fuck off</del> go somewhere other than here.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This phrase comes from main developer Neil Alexander's answer in the Matrix room to a question about Yggdrasil's advantages over Tor:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> <@karl:kashofer.org>: hi all ! whats the advantage of yggdrasil vs tor ? With hidden services tor provides a internal network and also anonymity.
|
||
|
|
> <@neilalexander:neilalexander.dev>: Anonymity **is not a goal of Yggdrasil**. We are a project trying to build an efficient and scalable mesh routing protocol, one that finds the best possible route through the network with a given set of links
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And so, what is not the goal of [[yggdrasil:Yggdrasil]]?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
===== Anonymity =====
|
||
|
|
If you want anonymity, then you are obviously at the wrong place.
|
||
|
|
Let's rehearse it together - "not a goal of Yggdrasil!"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
===== Security =====
|
||
|
|
Obviously, who would argue, that's obviously is "not a goal of Yggdrasil!"
|
||
|
|
As soon as you install Yggdrasil on your device,
|
||
|
|
take care of the firewall, because your security is the purpose of the firewall!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
===== Stability =====
|
||
|
|
"Not a goal of Yggdrasil", as weekly panic is common.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
===== Proxy mode =====
|
||
|
|
Proxy mode (HTTP/SOCKS) of Yggdrasil would help with browser support, and, for example, with creating Yggdrasil browser extension with no installation!
|
||
|
|
This would solve insecure connection problem (HTTP is "insecure"), resolve 300:: subnet collisions, but that "is not a goal of Yggdrasil"!
|
||
|
|
(By the way, Neil was doing SOCKS-mode support [[https://github.com/yggdrasil-network/yggdrasil-go/tree/netstack|yggstack]])
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
===== Autopeering =====
|
||
|
|
How nice it would be if a simple installation was enough to run Yggdrasil, with no additional configuration, but this "is not a goal of Yggdrasil"!
