🧅 MyZubster: Our First Tor v3 Onion Pilot Is Running!
From an open-source marketplace to a network of independent services. One step at a time.
Hey Coder Legion community! 👋
We've reached a new technical milestone with MyZubster, our open-source ecosystem focused on connecting people, projects, knowledge, and independent infrastructure.
We recently deployed our first experimental Tor v3 Onion Service using Docker and HAProxy.
🚀 What works so far?
✅ Tor successfully bootstrapped to 100%
✅ A dedicated Onion v3 identity was generated
✅ An isolated HAProxy service serves our experimental page
✅ Docker networks separate the pilot from production services
✅ The test proxy returns HTTP 404 for /api and /admin
✅ The experimental page was displayed during testing

Important: This is an experimental proof of concept, not a production-ready or independently audited service. Marketplace, Zorgax, wallets, and payment systems are not part of this pilot.
🌍 Why are we building this?
We want MyZubster to evolve into an ecosystem where contributors can:
- Connect independent open-source projects.
- Host services on their own infrastructure.
- Share verifiable technical knowledge.
- Build interoperable tools.
- Participate in community-driven governance.
- Explore privacy-conscious access through Tor.
We believe decentralization should be demonstrated through working infrastructure, not just promises.
👨💻 What's next?
We're collaborating with our contributor community, including @wasim-builds, on the next proposed development phase:
🔹 Reproducible Docker Compose deployment
🔹 Tor and HAProxy resilience testing
🔹 Network isolation and security documentation
🔹 Independent code reviews
🔹 Better monitoring and recovery procedures
🤝 Developers wanted!
