Niche forums and chat servers will likely move to tor hidden services at the risk of losing people because tor is slower. This is probably a decent time to teach people about the Onion-Location header [1] so that people can silently redirect those with Tor supporting browsers to the hidden sites.

It's about how one of the UK's largest forums is complying with the OSA and why they are taking this approach.
