My environment

  • ZeroNet version: 0.7.1
  • Operating system: windows
  • Web browser: edge(the newest)
  • Tor status: always
  • Opened port: no
  • Special configuration: no

My problem
in my area i cannot find trackers all trackers connected 0% even using tor with bridge.
It pops up as tracker connection error detected and content.json downloading failed.
So i cannot connect to any site except for hello zeronet

I hope that there is a list of private trackers that are not blocked or the zeronet has more bridges like snowfake and obfs built in.

The built-in version of Tor in ZeroNet is too old (and doesn't even support Tor Onion V3). Therefore, this problem is not unexpected.

However, the ZeroNet documentation mentions how to use the Tor Browser instead of ZeroNet's built-in Tor.

How to make Tor work if my ISP or goverment blocks it?

ZeroNet does not include Tor pluggable transports yet. The easiest way to make Tor work in a censored network is to start the Tor browser, configure it to connect to the Tor network with working pluggable transports, and modify ZeroNet's config to use Tor browser's proxy and control port by starting ZeroNet with --tor_controller 127.0.0.1:9151 --tor_proxy 127.0.0.1:9150 or by adding these parameters to zeronet.conf.

[global]
tor_controller = 127.0.0.1:9151
tor_proxy = 127.0.0.1:9150
