About these scores

OSS scale score is an unbounded metric that log-compresses and weights Stars, Watchers, Forks, and Contributors. Discovery score is the current OSS scale score minus the score at discovery. Update pace is commits in the last 30 days, growth momentum is the OSS scale score difference within the recent observation window, and OSS health is a 0–100 rating based on available recency, Community Health, and release data.

Overview

Nonograph is a privacy-oriented anonymous publishing platform with public instances available on clearnet and Tor hidden services, plus the option to operate your own server. The latest release checked is v0.4.5.

Features and best fit

Based on official documentation; not hands-on tested · Content checked:

Publish writing without centering accounts and public identities

The project focuses on anonymous publishing rather than social profiles, and lists several independently operated public instances.

Sources: [2]

Offer Tor hidden-service access in addition to clearnet

The README lists multiple onion endpoints, allowing deployments to provide non-clearnet access paths.

Sources: [2]

For publishing text without making profile identity or follower graphs the core experience

It fits privacy-conscious writing where the content matters more than a persistent public account.

Sources: [2]

Application design alone does not guarantee anonymity

Third-party instances have independent policies, while anonymity also depends on server logs, IP exposure, browser identifiers, Tor usage, and infrastructure configuration. Sensitive use should minimize trust and logging. Nonograph uses the Unlicense.

Supplemental curator note

Despite the name, Nonograph is not a nonogram puzzle app; it is an anonymous publishing platform. Public instances are operated by third parties with separate policies, so self-hosting provides the clearest operational control.
