Why? Because on some distributions (such as Elementary OS), installing from a PPA fails every time. I’m going to walk you through the process of installing Tor from source.
If your platform of choice varies, you’ll have to modify the Tor installation steps slightly. I’ll be demonstrating this process on the Elementary OS platform. I’m going to demonstrate how this is possible with the help of the official Tor application and an easy to install Chrome extension. With a few steps, you can enable the Chrome browser to make use of Tor. If Google Chrome is your browser of choice, you’re in luck. Although that is a fine option, there are those who prefer to stick with their browser of choice–and still use Tor. The one thing about Tor Browser is that it makes use of Firefox. Tor Browser is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. If not, it’s the easiest way to use a browser through the Tor network. Would be better to have a "setup a proxy" option on the initial login if app-specific is implemented.You’ve probably heard of Tor Browser. I'm thinking the only way to do it right now is set a system-wide proxy, get the NC app setup on my phone, and if it were available (I don't know if you've implemented this feature yet), then set the app-specific proxy settings and turn off system-wide. i2p address, I can't access it initially to set it up. Like Tor, I2P has it's own domain extension (.i2p), and these sites are only accessible via the I2P proxy. That being said, it would also be helpful if we could make that setting PRIOR to setting up the app. I'd need to bypass that proxy for NC to cut out an extra hop through the proxy. For example, I'd been playing around with using OpenVPN to connect to my internal network, and once there I use an internal proxy to get to the Internet. There are other options out there as well, so this is better served as an app-specific setting. I can also limit who can access the site at all by requiring a specific key, thus protecting my stuff better than I could on the clearnet. I don't need to open a port to my webserver through my firewall, thus minimizing script-kiddie-like attacks because the server's not accessible on the clearnet. I don't need absurd levels of security for my day-to-day things, but am setting up my new NextCloud instance on I2P primarily to make it not as easily accessible. I generally only use Tor via TAILS, not my phone.
Following up to alecbl's comment: I2P is one option I'm currently investigating instead of Tor.
