Adding integrated tor support
It would be a really nice feature to have tor support integrated in the app so it isnt necessary to start orbot in the background when accessing a nextcloud server on tor.
Hi! Thanks for the interest, however, I am afraid that I will not be able to pursue this request mid-term. There are still a lot of features missing that directly contribute to Yaga being a gallery app. Furthermore, I believe using Orbot is the default way of connecting from Android to Tor. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Ok, thanks for answering. Yes orbot is the default but umpractical way to connect to tor via android because you always need to start orbot in the background. What i proposed is tor integrated in the app. A very good example for what i mean is the "Phoenix Wallet" app in the Play store. I think any nextcloud application could benefit very much of it because it would make connecting to a self hosted nextcloud much easier because you dont need certificates and dns anymore. Here is an article of some benefits tor integration could bring to nextcloud: https://www.expressvpn.com/blog/apps-integrate-tor-dark-web-encryption/ I came to the idea because my umbrel bitcoin node does the same and i can easily connect to it no matter where i am via tor. Thanks.
I will leave it open for the time being. But no promises, neither on ETA nor on if it will be done at all.
