Hi everyone!
Tor 0.2.9 stable will be release this month and we want to make a blog post about the Single Onion Service feature.
We are wondering if anyone here is running one serving "many users" (for some values of many) and if there is any feedback you can give us or some "quote" that would bring some *zing* to our blog post as an incentive to run one?
Thanks! David

Propublica is, RiseUp might be, and I've asked the relevant Facebook people.

Tim reached out to me about ProPublica's onion service and mentioned the availability of Single Onions in 0.2.9 alpha (coming back to this thread). Here's part of my reply, which we both thought should be shared with the rest of this list:
Been using Single Onions for all our stuff under propub3r6espa33w for about a week or two now (basically since I saw your note for testing in tor-onions). Things are good so far, haven't had any issues with it so far. (And of course, it _is_ much faster feeling.)
Thanks a bunch for all your work on this!

Hi,
We recently put out a call for testing Tor 0.2.9, which includes the Single Onion Service feature.
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2016-October/011541.html
To use this feature, put the following lines in your torrc: HiddenServiceSingleHopMode 1 HiddenServiceNonAnonymousMode 1
I've just asked riseup birds on their irc channel to try this, since their services are also running on non-anonymous onion services.

We have a feature pending in GlobaLeaks for Single Onion Service, but not yet implemented: https://github.com/globaleaks/GlobaLeaks/issues/1801
Once we'll release to new Multi Process architecture, leveraging TxTorCon to handle multiple Tor Process, the Single Onion Service will be in place too.

I understand the desire to advertise the new feature, but - from a communications perspective - understand that running the new Single Onion code requires adoption of a core Tor daemon codebase which isn't even in "stable" yet.
Facebook _are_ running Single Onions*, they're just nor running the 2.9 codebase yet, they're doing it the old way.
If you want to talk about "sexy sites" it's probably wisest to talk about those who use the feature, including Facebook, and then frame the 2.9 code as reifying/"making concrete" a feature which will aid performance for sites which want onion addresses but do not need to be reticent or anonymous.
