Today, you can create any utility or service you would like, and securely access them with gold standard privacy.

Why is this not way more widespread?

    Isn't v2 completely deprecated?

    Or are you asking why arent more people using Tor in general?

    Domain names are random, cant memorize them. Solving that requires centralization or blockchain of some sorts.

      Specifically hosting via onion service.

      I don't see how it's an issue when qr codes and bookmarks are a thing.

      Why do you need to memorize it?
