Settings have not been modified.

Most '.onion' links that I try to access simply refuse to load. They will hang on the loading screen until the connection times out. Not all of them refuse to load, some of them actually do load. The websites I am trying to access are websites that have pretty a good uptime and are used quite often. You know, like, mainstream websites, but for the dark web.

The website that I especially need to access right now is Torum. It's link changed. The previous link worked fine, but now the new one just doesn't work, for some odd reason, regardless of being on the same server.

Any ideas as to why this would be happening? Is anyone else having this issue?

Most onion services are not running on servers. The are running on PC's, laptops, raspberry pi's etc. If the person running it turns off their machine, then the website is down.

Troubleshooting an onion service is just like any other website. If you can get to onion site A but not onion site B, C, or D it is because those are down.

http://expyuzz4wqqyqhjn.onion/ is the site that I use as a test. If it is up, and another site is down, then I know that Tor is working but the other website isn't.

  • Well, right now, Torch will load, but the website you linked won't. I can access certain websites from some devices, but not from others. I don't know. Tor just seems to be broken. :( Jan 19, 2020 at 20:48
