amethyst does seem to work (albeit slower, obviously) over tor using orbot. Just not when trying to connect to my relay's .onion address.

When not using tor, I can access the .local address from my phone's web browser and see the "Please use a Nostr client to connect" message (so DNS/network isn't an issue). But when I try to use the .local address in amethyst it doesn't connect.

When you say ".local address", are you talking about the websocket URL from Properties, except with "wss" instead of "ws" and ".local" instead of ".onion"?

Ah ok I see where I was getting tripped up...

I was grabbing the URLs from interfaces, not properties. Copying the URL from properties, importantly with the "ws://" rather than "wss://", the .onion address does in fact work with amethyst through orbot.

Sorry for the confusion gang. Didn't realize wss:// vs ws:// was a thing 🤦‍♂️

And just to close the loop. The .local address also works with "ws://" if people don't want to use tor and are on the same network. Rad
