Because tor v2 and v3 are not compatible. You can't just make all the links everyone ever made on any site, or entries in any search index, suddenly point to a new URL.
You can announce v2 is going to disappear and say that everyone should try to port what they can, but most don't. Only the big sites and their users actually have any pseudo-continuity through their efforts. And even then all the links stop working.
- ziddoap 5y agoThe fact that people didn't port is not an argument that they shouldn't have ported. Tor is primarily a security and privacy project. Arguing that they should keep an insecure version because people decided to ignore the security implications of that insecure version is an awful argument. Especially when those people had well over a year to execute. Your use case for Tor seems to be unrelated to the projects goals.
