Select the .onion tor url address of the public node you want to connect to

SSL: on

cert: blank

Use proxy: on

proxy url: 127.0.0.1

port: 9150

test the connection

if not, close all the way out of tor and sparrow then open tor browser again and get connection, open sparrow and test connection again

should see the tor icon in sparrow say "external tor proxy enabled"

Heya, thank you!! I’m just seeing this now, but it turns out that the proxy URL was the missing piece. I had “localhost” instead of 127.0.0.1

Perhaps I’m mistaken but i was pretty sure localhost always worked in the past. But then again, i set it once and didn’t really look at it again for a while til today.

We’re good now. But thanks again for the exact solution!!

Great! I had to add ip to my local node instead of dot local with latest sparrow update.
