 No! Do not invite people to decrease  their privacy levels please... If @ZEUS users connect their node over Tor they first need to understand the limitations and of course do the proper documetation reading. But IMHO Zeus needs a revision in its Tor integration. The fail attemps are big, which force me to use a 3rd app (InviZible VPN) for a good experience.
@KoalaSat has a very well known reputation and good solution for Tor integrations, he has done fantastic job at #Robosats and #Bluewallet recently. Perhaps he could help!

 Indeed.

I know @ZEUS did a great job with the Tor library they are using, but it was the same used by #Robosats and #Bluwallet, and I'm aware of some connection problems this library has. 

We have been testing with extremely great results an alternathve in #Robosats for the past 3 months for Android and we are workig on making it work for iOS to include it on #Bluwallet.

It was part of my master plan to knock at @ZEUS door after that 😁 if you are curious right now,  I can start sharing great stuff with you!

 Super happy to help! The compatibility of this library with iOS is still in development and closed to beta, but as I said, it already goes really smoth for Android.

I was thinking on doing something similar to what I did for Bluewallet (https://github.com/BlueWallet/BlueWallet/pull/6665) and try to create an Android POC so you can take a look

 All one needs is patience with tor. Been using Zeus over tor for a long time, yes disconnects happens but it’s way better than when it first lunched 5 years ago. Still works over tor today.

 Having a direct connection option does not mean you cannot use Tor, and it’s far better than Tailscale. Just use a VPN if you are worried about someone getting your IP address and knowing that you connect to your IP at home… but I don’t know why you would care that those are associated, they literally are already connected probably 100 different ways.
