Onion based federation is now working with #pleroma on #freedombone. This means that it's now possible to follow users on "onion only" installs.
This type of federation is quite significant, because it means independence from the DNS and CA systems. It means that even if you don't control your local internet router or don't have money to spend on domain names you can still create a social network. It significantly reduces the complexity barrier to entry for running a home server.

@bob /me wonders with i2p and tor onion v3 addresses both using 52 base 32 char, it would be possible to "dual" stack user@withudhdrtrcetjm5sxzskjyr5ztpeszydbh4dpl3pl4utgqqw2v4jna.b32.i2p and user@udhdrtrcetjm5sxzskjyr5ztpeszydbh4dpl3pl4utgqqw2v4jna.onion both be the same endpoint.

@bob Well I guess it depends on many things, not least whether the private key that makes the sha256 hash of the domain name has the same format in both applications. After writing that ... I think it's unlikely!

@bob a similar config could work just fine with i2p also (you would use the i2p management console to publish the webserver)
