Michael, what kind of reduction in battery impact would you expect if you were
able to make these changes?
Also, is anyone aware of any work that has been done within this community or
in academia to consider from first principles what Tor would look like if built

Hi everyone,
Is there a way right now to get Tor hidden service functionality (hosting a
hidden service, connecting to hidden services) on a connection where the
Internet is so slow and unreliable that the initial download of network
information currently takes ~forever, provided one is

connection are controlled by the attacker, so it seems really bad for

Hi everyone,
In the p2p messaging app we're building, Quiet, users exchange some information
out-of-band (an onion address) and use that to connect to each other over Tor,
as they would for direct messages in Ricochet Refresh or Cwtch.
One UX failure we see now is that newly-online hidden

Apologies if I missed this in the proposal, but what are the benefits of
this beyond decoupling? Will onion service users see benefits? Or is it
just about simplifying the code?

I was just at an event with a slow (but reliable) network and Tor was not able
to connect; the "Loading relay descriptors" step just took too long.
At some point I got an error message that indicated that it was giving up but
that I had enough information to connect to onion addresses. I can't
Knowing when an onion service is likely to be reachable would be useful for
us too, as would less variation in the time required to connect to an onion
address, or a clearer sense of progress when making a connection that we
could relay to the user.

Hi everyone,
My collaborators and I have been working for the past couple years on
building a Tor-based team chat app which we're calling Quiet*, and I'm
curious if anyone here would like to try it out!
If you would, please reply! :) I am especially interested in feedback from
Tor project
One thing I'm excited about for libp2p/tor is Arti.
It seems like Arti, when it's ready, will make it much easier to build a
fully functional and audited Tor client into a libp2p transport.

Would this return a list of currently-online onion addresses in possession
of the frontend address key?
Or would it just route traffic to one of those addresses invisibly?

Hi all,
For the messaging app we’re building on Tor (not Tor browser) what’s the best
way for us to be alerted when there are critical updates to Tor, so that we can
prepare a new release as quickly as possible?

Hi everyone,
I’m building a messaging app based on Tor v3 onion services and I’m wondering
what kind of uptime expectations we should set with users and other

Is there data over time on uptime for onion service functionality? That is, not

Hi everyone,
We’re working on a peer-to-peer group chat app where peers connect over v3
onion addresses.
One issue are groups where there are many users but only a few are online in a
given moment. Onion addresses are forever, and existing peers might know every
peer in the network, but it

Hi everyone,
We’re building a Ricochet-inspired chat app, and there are situations where we
want to create a new hidden service URL. On macOS and Linux we can send a
SIGHUP to make Tor reload its config. What’s the best way to do this on
Windows?
