Hello everyone I have been running a tor node off and on for the past two years and I plan to be running full time now but I just wanna ask how to become a directory authority.

I believe several Tor People¹ should have known you personally for years. (Face to face.) ¹https://www.torproject.org/about/people/ But I don't think that new directory server will be needed, otherwise they would already be set up. Most directories run at well-known universities.

But exit and bridges are always needed ;-)
