Lately in the light of more Internet censorship I've been trying to establish more reserve channels for communication. As part of it, I am exploring some of the .onion services that are available.

Since at least 2023, there was a discussion of using Lemmy on Tor network. Are there any actual instances or mirrors of instances available through it? Also, is it possible to federate between .onion and clearnet Lemmy instances?

With little system administration skills and a habit of getting ahead of myself, I've grown to fear containers more than the bare metal lol

But maybe I'll get to it one day. Still, there's no use for a single-user Lemmy server on another network if it can't federate to anything else.
