IPFS wont run via Tor, DHT is UDP based and Tor doesn't support UDP by design. Did my research last weekend, anybody more knowledgable, please correct me if I am wrong. Possibly it should run fine via I2P or Yggdrasil.

Googled ipfs and tor just to make sure it's not hard to find.

The first result was a guide on how to do it.

I'm not sure pointing to Google is "correcting him". But yeah, a good guide on how to use IPFS as an hidden service would be pretty useful.

did you also TEST it? last time i did this, it never really connected to the IPFS network. also it was marked as experimental

Yggdrasil is not really anonymous, though.
