 TOR is great for security and anonymity, but absolutely sucks as the means of accessing my nextcloud when not home @Start9 first time i have really needed it and of course i just can't connect. vpn on or off. no nextcloud for you. frustrating 
 I think you are misplacing blame here. Tor is awesome. Nextcloud sucks. Keeping anything valuable in the cloud, Also not advisable. 
 no. i got it right. TOR is the issue here. It's unreliable. Nextcloud works great. That cloud is my computer, so i don't understand the 'valuable' comment 
 Tor is just slow for services exactly like this one. It works really fast when broadcasting transactions. If you don’t want feedback don’t post to Damus. 
 i do want feedback. so you're agreeing with me? i didn't complain about my btc node on TOR. and speed isn't the issue. i can't access nc hidden service at all and i can't reboot bc the webui and ssh over TOR also fails to connect.  
 Sometimes Tor doesn’t work well if there is other encryption services at play. You mentioned that you disabled your vpn, Look more into the Nextcloud service. As well, Sometimes Tor over IPv6 leaks data to the VPN client. Tor wants to be exclusive to clearweb servers. Trying to go between both on your computer is tricky. 
 i think it may be a hardware issue, bc i'm running another instance of startos on an old laptop,  with far worse specs, and that one i can connect to. it's the more powerful machine that's always having issues 
 Yeah maybe some sandbox problems around these kind of software platforms.
