Freenet is an open source peer-to-peer network primarily designed for censorship-resistant communication. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install Freenet on the latest version of OpenSUSE using the command line.
First, open your terminal and add the Freenet repository to your system:
sudo zypper addrepo https://repos.freenetproject.org/openSUSE/latest freenet
Next, update your system's package list:
sudo zypper refresh freenet
Now install Freenet:
sudo zypper install freenet
During the installation process, you will be prompted to generate a strong password for the Freenet web interface. Make sure to save it in a safe place.
Once the installation is complete, start Freenet by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start freenet.service
If you want to make Freenet start automatically on system startup, run this command too:
sudo systemctl enable freenet.service
Finally, open your web browser and navigate to the following URL to access the Freenet web interface:
http://localhost:8888/
You will be prompted to enter the password you generated during installation.
That's it! You have successfully installed Freenet on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now use Freenet to communicate with others in a censorship-resistant manner.
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!
