# QuickMedia
Native clients of websites with fast access to what you want to see, **with TOR support**.
Currently supported web services: `youtube`, `nyaa.si`, `manganelo`, `mangatown`, `mangadex`, `4chan`, `matrix` and _others_.\
**Note:** Manganelo doesn't work when used with TOR.\
**Note:** Posting comments on 4chan doesn't work when used with TOR. However browsing works.\
**Note:** TOR system service needs to be running (`systemctl start tor.service`).\
**Note:** Image pages that were downloaded without --upscale-images and are cached wont get upscaled when running with `--upscale-images`.\
**Note:** Matrix and file-manager is early in progress, not very usable yet.\
Config data, including manga progress is stored under `$HOME/.config/quickmedia`.\
Cache is stored under `$HOME/.cache/quickmedia`.
