#tor-onions on OFTC?
Hasn???t OFTC started to block Tor (at least partially) which was the reason some people wanted to move #tor away from OFTC? Or am I misinformed there?
Yes, this is probably so, but I don't think we'll get critical mass, for the simple reason that there's no clear place to move to.
We moved from freenode to oftc, long ago, because oftc had better policies around Tor (and they still do).
Some fans have suggested that Tor should set up and run its own irc network. I don't think this is a wise use of our energy.
Long-term I'd like somebody to experiment with an irc proxy that implements anonymous blacklisting, so we can allow Tor users while also banning jerks: https://blog.torproject.org/blog/call-arms-helping-internet-services-accept-... But we are now off-topic for this list. :)
