Have you ever been to an .onion URL before? I find it baffling that you don’t see the benefits of using a native hidden service…
Fully anonymous, nothing goes through clearnet. Yes, cafe is accessible through Tor, no, that is not a hidden service and will never be.
First couple sentences said everything I had to know. :)
None. I won’t waste our time going over this. No point either, Lemmy does not support it.
There is absolutely zero difference between fetching data via Tor but still getting the files from clearnet points instead of .onion points. You are 100% correct. Cheers.
