The removed hackers will inevitability get access to the data of exploding heads one day, and when they get your IP and general location, how will that effect you?

I use Tor btw

Unfortunately, no .onion for EH. just using the tor browser on the normal site. And yeah honestly fuck it, just be careful when clicking links, because they can put trackers in the redirect to find your ip

I think way back in the time I remember reading somewhere that lemmy wouldn't work over tor because of something with the routing. I don't actually remember the reason but it was something along those lines.

I am talking about hosting it with .onion domain. Access trough tor is the same as access trough clear net on the backend

No worries. That would have been awesome though. But then again, now that I think about, I can't really recall any lemmy instances on onion, so maybe it's not compatible? Otherwise, if I'm wrong, maybe we should suggest doing something like rumble (I think?) where you can access from either https address or onion address.

Agreed. On PC, I only access on VPN (have it configured to deny Internet if VPN connection goes down unless user manually overrides) and I use private Firefox 99% of the time and use hardened settings + privacy add-ons.

Mobile, I also use VPN + kiwi (chromium-based and add-on support so I do some privacy add-ons like Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin, ClearURLs, etc) and just clear browsing history here and there.
