Don't forget to use vanguards for .onion services,
if not already done!

Vanguards? Why?

The full vanguards Python script (mikeperry-tor/vanguards on GitHub) is effectively dead upstream.

It was removed from Debian Trixie, dropped from Whonix 18
and the Whonix devs themselves flag it as abandoned.

You probably mean a version i don't know but also vanguards-lite is ...
lite,
is not suitable for a production environment, imho.

The vanguards add-on IS abandoned in terms of active development,
last commit October 2023, removed from Debian Trixie, no maintainer.

On the other hand the Tor Project forum confirms this as of February 2026:

*the add-on is abandoned but not broken*.

As far as i see a newer implementation of full vanguards will only come when arti replaces C-Tor,
which is not happening anytime soon.

As you may know, the Tor Network has a very high percentage of bad actors, compared to the modern Nym Mixnet, which can discover your .onion sites.

Long ago I did an apt install under Debian.

If it is not suitable than this should tell us something
about the Tor ecosystem, it's programmers and users...

It's a jungle out there.

Can be considered compromised !

Nym has the right cryptographic design (Sphinx <3), but its infrastructure depends on a speculative token economy.

Network resilience tied to market sentiment is the opposite of what critical privacy infrastructure needs.
In my really humble opinion.

On paper, it addresses exactly what Tor fails at metadata protection against a global passive adversary. But Nym's entire infrastructure runs on a speculative token economy.
Node operators are incentivized by financial rewards, not by mission.

If the token crashes, operators leave and the network degrades.
If the token moons, it attracts profit-driven operators who may cut corners on security.

Beside this, Nym as architecture is SOUND !!!

Best regards
