There are lots of places... you could host via Sia, bittorrent, etc. A git repo is just a bunch of files. That said, I doubt hosting a client on github would be a problem (see https://github.com/torpyorg/torpy for instance, plenty of illegal stuff on the tor network).

However they don't seem to fulfill my needs or they seem long discontinued. It also might be possible that things are just not as easy as I might wish, in this case I'd be happy to learn. To be completely honest I didn't have the time to deeply dig into the exact procedures of how "routing traffic through tor" works so I was looking for an idiots method. I was hoping for something like torpy, just for Rust.
