History
This project started as a proof of concept named Globalist in 2018 (the name was because it was intended to manage a global list of "websites", if one wants to call them that, blocking tor - a practice that unfortunately still hasn't entirely died out). In 2019, it proliferated - development had apparently been taken over by some folks over at notabug.org. They had a bugtracker for open issues, but it's gone now: https://notabug.org/themusicgod1/cloudflare-tor/issues?type=all&sort=&state=open&labels=1151&milestone=0&assignee=0 I followed them to notabug.org, which is now the primary home of my programming projects instead of github. It's one of many noncommercial platforms for collaborative development.
Maybe it's time to go one step further. Maybe it's time to revive the idea, given that M$ acquired github and they're subject to legal threats by the US DMCA copyright MAFIAA as well ... and we want to hasten the exodus from surveillance-capitalist platforms that are single points of failure, which the FLOSS community has been all too happy to rely on, for too long now.
