What is Isis

But not all network users want to install any software for themselves, and some may not be able to do it. And don't forget about mobile devices that are not supported by the Osiris network.

To solve this problem, you can use the web gateway from the Osiris network to the usual Internet.

In order to provide normal access (via the web) to your Osiris forum, you will need to: either find the already installed Isis gateway, or install your own.

To install it, you need a web server with php support of at least version 5. *. database not required.

There is available forum habrahabr in the network Osiris

Internal rating system in anarchy mode

In the first part, I already talked about the differences between the regime of Anarchy and the Monarchy when creating a forum.

But let's take a closer look at the Anarchy mode.
In this mode, there are no administrators and moderators, the forum is moderated on the basis of a general vote.
Each user has an internal rating (analogue of karma). If the rating is high, the user’s trust is high, and if it’s low, no one sees the user’s edit.

The principle of wikipedia is preserved here, everyone can edit other people's posts and even change the structure of the forum! (add and delete sections, topics, forums, under the forums)

But any editing can be both accepted and canceled by means of voting.

There is a Bitcoin network rule here - if at least 51% of users are sane and vote for correct edits and not for vandalism, the forum will live.

Integration of Osiris and I2P

You can integrate these two networks in two ways:
1) Make an Isis gate on the i2p network
2) Configure proxy access to the Osiris node on the I2P network

Moreover, in both cases you will have up-to-date data, because the i2p network has access to the external Internet, then the changes will be synchronized.

If you are again interested in the Osiris network 3 parts you can read about:
