Gemini over tor

[James Tomasino]

I set up Gemini on https://tilde.black for all users tonight. We're
running Jetforce there (and I wrote a openbsd rcctl wrapper if anyone
needs one). One of the first questions I got from the community was
whether it would work over tor. I had no idea so I added a hidden
service and tried it:

HiddenServicePort 1965 127.0.0.1:1965

The results can be seen here:

Tor doesn't work, but a direct connection does. I admit to not groking
TLS, but I suspect it's related to this. Tor uses its own certs to
verify the connection, but Gemini will want to use its own. I have no
idea if the protocols are compatible. If it's possible, I'd like to
implement it on ~black, but I defer to the smarter people on this list.
