Is it possible to route that specific tor connection over clearnet through tor? Something like a split

You can route clearnet URLs over Tor but not tor onion urls ovee clearnet essentially.

Mobile apps and desktop apps could probably pack a tor daemon in the app to route any onion url over Tor automatically. IIRC, Amethyst did this? Is that correct nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z?

No, Amethyst relies on the Tor proxy provided by Orbot. Routes throigh Tor allor nothing. I find websockets working over Tor surprisingly well. Once the connections are established with a few seconds delay the speed is acceptable. Amethyst is well usable over Tor of needed.

On the list, but we never found a stable Tor library to use inside Amethyst. Much less one that we can control the routes to avoid routing everything through the same nodes.
