Unfortunately, I had to make some compromises when moving public services to a VPS and locking up my home network. No more matrix synapse homeserver.

Takes too much resources on a cheap VPS. Also, I'm not as bullish on matrix as I once was. Takes too much of my own time to manage my instance, I failed to convince friends and family to use it and matrix leaks a bunch of metadata when federating with big servers.

I'll only use signal (molly), simplex, and telegram (with fake number).

Ive got a Matrix instance running over Tor only (on Embassy). Its a good fall back, but SimpleX looks more promising.

Matrix can work (and federate) over tor? I remember seeing a github issue for it so I just assumed it was not possible yet.

Yes it works over Tor but you can't join a clearnet room or speak to a clearnet peer from a Tor instance. I know the Start9 guys are (or were) creating a bridge between the two.
