Be the change you want to see.

It’s not so much the community that would be the issue, it would be a lack of users. I’m looking to find out more about how to find things on there and stuff.

If you are looking for information related to Tor you could probably find some discussion of it in privacy focused communities and instances.

Maybe try searching related topics like Tor or the podcast Darknet Diaries. If you are looking for a fake Rolex or the onion versions of news sites like the BBC you can just search for those directly instead of jumping through hoops to end up there anyway.

Lemmy is public, no one is going to want to use it for discussion of those topics.

Lol

There's plenty of people who want that sort of discussion on Lemmy.

Btw there's legit uses for the "dark web". Getting crucial drugs that are illegal (e.g. opioids against PTSD, maybe even abortion drugs soon), communication channels for politically targeted people and more.

And obviously especially when it is so co controversial, that is even more of a reason for a public discussion forum about it. Lemmy is all about different perspectives, so that fits perfectly.

People do it on reddit. There's at least two subs dedicated to it.
