TOR support?

[MrSimmo]

With the level of torrent blocking ever increasing, would it be possible to see if there is a way to search for magnets/torrent sources using TOR?

A manual method people currently use is:

1. Use TOR browser to browse to the appropriate website/onion version of the website
2. Search then Copy/Paste magnet link into Deluge

what is wrong with adding a vpn like nord to your system or browsec to your browser and only use the browser extensions for dtv?

[MrSimmo]

Theres nothing wrong with either but this would give an in-the-box solution.

fair enought as long if implemented it can be toggled on and off.

@MrSimmo I dont think using tor will help because lots of the tor exit IPs are blocked by DDoS mitigation services like Cloudflare and will require you to fill in a capture.

you are better off using Jackett with a proxy enabled, because Jackett gives you the option to test each indexer/website to see if its working with or without a proxy.

Agreed, it could work with the .onion version of the sites though which would save exits? Agreed though the whole Captcha thing is pita..

I am finding the same thing although, i think Jackett with https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett/issues/2359 and https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett/issues/2539 implemented will be a better solution than tor.

For the sites that have .onion versions this may work but, i haven't tried it.

afaik, accessing through .onion doesn't prompt captchas at least for cloudflare, because cloudflare has "onion services" enabled by default
