Run `tor-browser` as another user ??

I create also a "regular user" TorUser2
To see if it generate the same problems
This user have the .Xauthority file.\

# as root user
runuser -u TorUser2 -- /opt/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.desktop

return Launching './Browser/start-tor-browser --detach...'
and ps -u TorUser2 return nothing...


I've tried also

runuser -l TorUser2 -c '/opt/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.desktop'

/usr/bin/env: './Browser/execdesktop': No such file or directory

I've try one guidance, but it didn't worked.

I quit the xfce, login as root, did

echo $XAUTHORITY
#returned nothing

XAUTHORITY=/tmp/.Xauthority.tmp
xauth -f $XAUTHORITY generate :0 . trusted

and after few minute it returned

xauth: (argv):1 unable to open display :0 😢

Thank you @[email protected] I've look where point the $XAUTHORITY but it point to another user /home/<aUser>/.Xauthority and to give access to the file I have to change also the permission on the parent folders... not to hot to do so...

I see also the TorUser do not have a file .Xauthority ! I've look how generate one for it, but I found no good documentation ! They show how do it once logged with TorUser ! but mine is not meant to be used to login on the system..

Privacy minded ` instant messaging ` quest.

A little update.

I've just tested simplex on Android.

it's very well thought out ! The features make sense. UNFORTUNATELY it's not P2P ! all the messages pass by their servers :'( with Briar it's P2P.... weirdly they claim their way is better than P2P ! any comment on that ?

In my point of view, if messages are stored somewhere it's mean the can be process1 !

Cheers.

Stuck at *Opened Socks listener connection (ready)*

Damn

now that I open few ports 9001

I see incoming connection that are dropped because they use totally diffrent ports

drop: IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=aMacadrs SRC=aIP DST=aMyIP LEN=64 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=48 ID=65508 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=443 DPT=50194 WINDOW=501 RES=0x00 ACK URGP=0

::: spoiler privacy I've replaced some string with 'aSomething' ::: .

it's weird in my nftable config file I have

type filter hook input priority 0; policy drop;
ct state established,related accept

Any ideas ?
