> The onion service bandwidth has been reduced by about 2/3 over November

Back to 2019 levels of bandwidth? I feel like I may be misreading that graph, but I'm more curious about what bandwidth suddenly spiked the last two years more so than the drop back down.

At any rate, I always understood the main point of Tor was providing an overlay network for accessing the internet and maintaining secure anonymity as much as possible, with its own internal network being more of a happy side effect.

I don't think IPFS would be as quick to kill compatibility with a vulnerable hashing algo compared to Tor since they're not aiming for security and anonymity as primary goals.
