Syndie is a decentralized communication platform that allows you to post messages and files anonymously on the internet. In this tutorial, we will explain step-by-step how to install Syndie on FreeBSD.
If you don't have Java Development Kit (JDK) version 8 or higher installed on your FreeBSD system, run the following command:
sudo pkg install openjdk8
Once Java is installed, you can verify the version by running the following command:
java -version
If Git is not installed on your FreeBSD system, run the following command:
sudo pkg install git
Next, clone the Syndie repository by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/i2p/ Syndie.git
This will clone the Syndie repository to your current working directory.
Move into the cloned Syndie directory by running the following command:
cd Syndie
Next, build Syndie using the following command:
./gradlew build
This process may take a few minutes to complete.
Once the build is complete, you can run Syndie by executing the following command:
./gradlew runClient
This will start Syndie and open a graphical user interface where you can configure the application.
In this tutorial, we have explained how to install Syndie on FreeBSD. You can now use Syndie to post messages and files anonymously on the internet.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
