 > > We don’t think you should need to remember this address. Ideally, all
 you would need to do is go to [https://tor.cloudflare-dns.com/ https://tor
 .cloudflare-dns.com] and have the browser route your request to the .onion
 address. This is possible using the "[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7838
 Alt-Svc]" HTTP header which is an optional header notifying the browser
 that the resources can be accessed from an alternative network location,
 possibly using a different protocol. Thanks to
 [https://hacks.mozilla.org/2018/05/a-cartoon-intro-to-dns-over-https/
 Mozilla], using .onion addresses as alternative services is now possible
 in [https://nightly.mozilla.org/ Firefox Nightly].

 anything yet in Tor Browser (maybe it does in Firefox), but there is
 #26365.
 #27502 asks for this feature.
