It is not necessary to switch from sys-whonix to sys-firewall. Whonix
VMs will still continue to work as before. This announcement just
means that you should switch from any Qubes Tor onion service domains
(ending in ".onion") that you may have been relying on (e.g., for
package repos or the Qubes website) to instead use the corresponding
clearnet domain (usually qubes-os.org). Note that you can still use
Tor with clearnet domains.

If you were not using any Qubes Tor onion services, then this
announcement does not affect you.
