Join the Briar Forums bot

You picked riscv64 v2.0 (#162). Add the bot below: once you are contacts, it sends you an invitation to this forum.

Already a contact of the bot? Just send it /join 162.

Add the bot in 3 steps

Briar connects two people at a distance once both have entered the other's link: you send yours here, and you enter the bot's link in Briar.

1. Send your link. In Briar, open Contacts, tap the round + button, then Add contact at a distance. Under “Give this link to the contact you want to add”, tap Copy and paste your link here. Keep that Briar screen open.
   Send my link to the bot
2. Enter the bot's link in Briar. Copy it:
   briar://abnoewel4k4iubug2labxupnvw3jhmcmbt6yz4j7lihva4bbolka2 Copy
   Back in Briar, under “Enter the link from your contact here”, tap Paste, then Continue. Choose a nickname such as “Briar Forums” and tap Add contact.
3. Wait with Briar open. The bot stays under Pending Contact Requests until both sides connect over Tor, usually within a few minutes. It then sends you a welcome message and the invitation to riscv64 v2.0.

Then ask for forums

In your conversation with the bot:

• /list — browse forums (each one has a number)
• /search linux — find forums by name
• /join 23 — get an invitation to forum number 23, then accept it in Briar → Forums
• /help — all commands

Once you are in a forum, share it with your own contacts: forums only live as long as people keep sharing them.

Keep Briar running and signed in, or posts stop arriving: how to stay connected.
